SCATTER-SOME-BIRDSEED
Everyone knows that crows cannot live on prose alone - so by birdseed, we mean vital sustenance! Any amount from $10 to $100 gets you credit on our donor list, and the knowledge that you've gotten this project one step closer to reality.
HELP-BUILD-A-NEST
Participate in something revolutionary. Add your donation to the creation and presentation of new and spectacular work. Be part of the dawn of a new kind of theater project. All this, for your donation of any amount from $500 to $5,000. You'll be getting credit out the wazoo. And also some Upstart Crow swag, to be determined.
SCAVENGE-SOME-SHINY-OBJECTS
Crows love shiny things. Expecially when they turn up in our bank account. Any donation amount from $5,000-$10,000 gets you major acknowledgment on our donor list, some Upstart Crow swag, an early copy of one Upstart Crow play manuscript, signed by its author, (might have to wait a couple of years for the plays to be written, but you'll get it eventually!), and the knowledge that you've just helped to change the theatrical world.
FUND-A-CROW
As in, you're the sponsor of 1 whole brand-new American play! Doesn't this sound like more fun than what a typical theatrical donation might buy you? Your name engraved on a seat? Try your name engraved on theater history, for a mere $10,000 USD. Your name as sole sponsor of one commission, plus the abovementioned acknowledgement, swag and script. Really, it's a deal.
FUND-THE- WHOLE-SHEBANG!
What's less than the budget of most independent films? What's less than the price of a one-bedroom apartment in NYC? What sure as hell is less than what it costs many theaters to run for even one season? That's right - it's the ENTIRE fundraising goal of The Upstart Crow Project.
We are a playwright-run organization. We have very low overhead. And we're cost-effective as all get out. We're changing the face of American theater, and if you feel in the mood to help in a REALLY big way, you or your corporation can fund the whole thing for $600,000 USD.
The Upstart Crow Project has recently become a partner artist project of Seattle's Shunpike, a 501c3 non-profit art service organization, whose mission is to strengthen the Seattle arts community by partnering with small and mid-size arts groups to develop the business tools they need to succeed. It was founded in 2001 to support a vibrant and diverse local arts community where arts groups of all sizes could thrive. Working in close partnership with these groups, the Shunpike helps solve problems quickly and impart vital skills in finance, organizational management and arts administration. Since inception, they have supported work by more than 2,000 artists in live performance, film, literary arts, visual arts, and arts education. The Shunpike is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, and all donations to its Partner Artist projects and organizations are fully tax-deductible.
