United Arts Collaborative Campaign for the Arts title

The United Arts Collaborative Campaign

Your donations go further with a 15% match by United Arts!

Garden Theatre and 32 other Collaborative Campaign for the Arts partners are working together to raise $6 million in support of local arts and culture. Although the campaign starts on February 1, we have a chance to get a head start on reaching our goal! From now until December 31, we are trying to raise as much as possible before the campaign even starts. Your donation will help support us throughout the coming year so we can continue to provide a wide range of diverse programming for our community.

Community Impact

The arts are a part of the social fabric in our community. Garden Theatre takes great pride in bringing unique arts experiences to children and families who otherwise would not have access to such programs. Last season, Garden Theatre hosted 176 free and reduced-cost community outreach events to serve young people, families and veterans. Garden Theatre also offers a military discount for all active duty and retired military members with a valid military ID.

Garden Theatre partners with several other nonprofit organizations including:
• Boys and Girls Club of Central Florida
• Matthew’s Hope
• Center for Independent Living
• Camaraderie Foundation
• East Winter Garden Community Initiative

How Will Your Contribution Be Used?

Your support is vital to the Garden Theatre as over half of our operating budget comes from charitable contributions. These generous gifts make it possible for us to provide our patrons with impactful performing arts experience of the highest quality.

These are just some of the ways your gift directly impacts the Garden Theatre:
General Support meets the greatest need of the organization
Education and Outreach provides arts education and experiences to young people, families and veterans.
New Work Development impacts a work’s journey from commission to premiere.

In-Kind Giving

Another way to support our work is through in-kind giving.  Garden Theatre benefits from a variety of donated materials, supplies and professional services throughout the year. Garden Theatre relies heavily on in-kind donations for items and services that go beyond the scope of our budget. If you are interested in making an in-kind donation to the theatre, please contact our Development Director at 407-877-4736 x204 or development@gardentheatre.org.
