Bringing theatrical productions to life involves hard work, dedication, energy and a significant amount of money. Your support is crucial to our mission of bringing live entertainment to Port Orchard and providing summer camps for youth.
There are many different ways you can support us. You can volunteer your time, make a monetary donation, or even sponsor a season or show! Without you, none of this is possible.
Financial Donations
As a not-for-profit arts organization, Western Washington Center for the Arts simply would not exist without the generosity of our patrons and donors. Ticket sales cover only a portion of our production costs, so we rely on gifts from the community to close the gap and to provide essential funding to bring live theater to south Kitsap County.
Click the link below and you will see three different funds for donation as below:
– Support WWCA – These funds go towards the daily cost of maintaining and running the theatre, including rent, utilities, and supplies. WWCA is a volunteer-led organization, and this type of support is crucial in keeping us going as we work back onto our feet.
– Theatre Renovation Fund – This fun goes directly to upgrades and renovations for our new theatre, as well as getting the permits and specialized contractors needed for some of these updates and changes. Donations here go directly to the building fund for use with those expenses.
– Summer Workshop Scholarship Fund – This goes to helping cover the costs of our Summer Workshops for children who otherwise may not be able to afford to attend, based on need.
Become a Monthly Sponsor and earn discounts!
If you choose to become a monthly sponsor, there are a variety of discounts available to you – in order to do so, simply use the donation link and choose the option to make it a monthly recurring gift. After three months, our system will tag your email for rewards on future tickets!
$10 or more monthly – Spotlight Supporter
Spotlight Supporter members will receive an automatic 5% discount on ticket purchases.
$25 or more monthly – Encore Elite
Encore Members will receive an automatic 10% discount on tickets.
$50 or more monthly – Center Stage Champion
Center Stage Champions will receive a 15% discount on tickets.
$100 or more monthly – Bruce’s Band
Those who are “in the band” receive a 20% discount on tickets.
These discounts are tied to the email that the donation is logged with. All levels must have three months of recurring donation to receive the reward with that tier, and a gap of more than three months in donation removes the rewards from that email. Many of these perks can also be earned by volunteering – see below for more information.
Sponsor a season or show
You can choose to sponsor the entire season or sponsor individual shows and events. Our seasons have an amazing lineup of shows that offer something for everyone. Reach out to us today to discuss the benefits of sponsorship, upcoming shows, and any questions you may have.
