Support the arts in our community!
We Need Your Support!
You are cordially invited to join the circle of Sponsors of Kelrik Productions, an exciting new presence in the local performing arts community. Under the artistic direction of co-founder (and SLO native) Erik Austin, Kelrik Productions was voted “Best Children’s Theater” in Los Angeles by LA Parents Magazine in 2000. Since relocating to the Central Coast in 2004, Kelrik has built up a strong local following while maintaining its particular commitment to fostering an appreciation of live theater in younger audiences. Our twin goals are to showcase the talents of an amazing group of gifted local actors and to expand opportunities for local audiences to experience high-quality, live theater.
It is exceedingly difficult to maintain the high quality of our work while keeping ticket prices affordable. We have found we cannot do so through ticket sales alone: donor contributions cover 40% of the cost of these transformative theatrical experiences. Kelrik currently enjoys the support of over twenty businesses, ranging from small local retailers to large employers in our area, and of nearly forty individuals. Corporate and Individual support ensures the continuation of our productions. Every dollar raised goes directly toward production costs, helping pay for the stunning sets, evocative lighting design and sumptuous costumes audiences have come to expect of our productions; for artistic rights to the shows we produce; for printing costs and publicity; and for the rental of our rehearsal space and performance venues.
Your generous contribution will enable us not only to produce this show, but to continue to fulfill our artistic, strategic and community goals: to create extraordinary productions and programs that challenge, entertain and stimulate our audiences, and to develop an appreciation of live theater in local youth. By supporting us, you can help us entertain you!
Please consider becoming a Contributing Sponsor for Kelrik. In-kind and monetary donations of any size are gratefully accepted. Your generosity will help ensure Kelrik’s ability to contribute to the local arts community for years to come. We truly appreciate your support!
