$30K IN 60 DAYS: Help us keep the SF art scene weird and wild!
For over a decade, the SF Neo-Futurists have performed over 800 shows at dozens of Bay Area theaters, written just about 4,000 hyper-short plays to delight over 20,000 audience members, and done it all while keeping our ticket prices low and raising pay for artists and collaborators. Despite rising rents and reduced arts funding, we certainly don’t plan on stopping anytime soon.
As 2024 draws to a close and we look forward to our next ten years, we’re asking you to help make sure that the arts scene in the Bay stays vibrant, weird, and wild. If we’ve ever made you laugh, cry, or go WTF (but in a good way), consider supporting the SF Neo-Futurists as we raise $30k in 60 days!
🎁 Your donation will enable us to:
🏠 Produce The Infinite Wrench 50 weeks a year! (That’s 100 shows!) We pay $600/week to rent space at our home venue, and more for our quarterly specialty shows like Pride and Best Of.
💸 Pay local artists in a high cost-of-living area—we pay $225/week and would love to pay even more!
🩵 Keep our show financially accessible, with tickets no more than $25 and discounts for those who need it!
🍎 Offer free workshops to BIPOC & LGTBQIA+ students!
All donations are tax-deductible. We are also eligible for corporate gift-matching and can be found in most giving portals!
