SUPPORTING PORTLAND STAGE<br />
Investing in Portland Stage makes a lasting difference in so many ways. The generosity of corporations, foundations,<br />
and individual donors alike enables us to surround the work on our Mainstage with education, new work development,<br />
and community engagement initiatives that deepen and broaden the impact of the shows themselves. Tax-deductible<br />
contributions keep Portland Stage a vital, relevant, inclusive, and engaging theater, and ultimately, ensure the<br />
fulfillment of our mission and the enrichment of our community.<br />
Donor Spotlight:<br />
Kristin & Ken Conant<br />
“We have been season ticket holders<br />
and supporters of Portland Stage for ten<br />
years. We like to support the arts, and<br />
Portland Stage goes beyond just producing<br />
a show. We have connected with Portland<br />
Stage’s emphasis on thought-provoking<br />
shows, talented actors, and behind-thescenes<br />
support that has been remarkable.<br />
We really like the initiative for the next<br />
generation by making education a priority<br />
for so many students.”<br />
“Last season, all the<br />
shows were great, and The<br />
Niceties was the most memorable.<br />
The points and counterpoints about<br />
privilege and social justice were very<br />
eye opening. Two strong actresses<br />
gave believable accounts from their<br />
perspective, and it was so easy to see<br />
their respective points of view<br />
during the show.”<br />
