SEASON 12 2014-2015
SUSTAINING SPONSORSHIP
Our drive to seek sustaining individual and corporate sponsors grew substan- tially with the formation of our Leadership Circle with 16 sustaining major donors and the addition of 65 new individual and corporate sustain- ing donors.
92 CENTS A SECOND CAMPAIGN
Our season 12 campaign for individual donors
highlighted the impor- tance of every second that our
supporters contribute by breaking down the cost of each second of Shakespeare. $47,600 was raised, and over 192 contributions were received during the 6-week festival season.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant and a Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council grant, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
GREAT RIVER LEAGUE
GRSF’s small business partnerships continued this season with the addition of our rst sustaining business partners: Blooming Grounds and Yarnology.
