Donations are tax deductible and offer donor recognition & redeemable cash vouchers. This is not a profitable enterprise. Our ticket sales typically do not quite cover musician compensation, much less printing, advertising, theater rental, insurance, etc., etc. We have in recent years been fortunate to receive modest grants to help defray expenses, we have received in-kind donations from our season sponsors, and we have also enjoyed increasing support from patrons such as yourself. Collectively, these are the pieces of the financial puzzle that keep our boat afloat. Please consider a donation. Any amount is greatly appreciated and is tax deductible (minus voucher value).

This activity is funded, in part by the Minnesota arts and cultural heritage fund through a grant from the Central Minnesota Arts Board as appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature with money from the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.

Special thanks go out to our season sponsors, Pioneer Place Theater, GrandStay Residential Suites and Bo Diddley’s Deli for their generous support. Pioneer Place Theater is a splendid venue for our larger shows. GrandStay provides first class overnight accommodations for our musician guests. Bo Diddley’s provides food & beverage for our musicians and an intimate setting for our smaller concerts and 5x5 Showcases. Thanks to those of you who have offered to co-sponsor a particular artist. We have booked ten acts with this assistance these past five years and we look forward to booking other co-sponsored artists in the future.
