Make Your Commitment to the Performing Arts in Our Community
Please help us ensure that great performances continue to be presented in the North Country for years to come. Give today or plan a gift for the future.
The arts provide us with a diverse array of benefits. They can be a vehicle for expression, introspection, learning and education, or simply a means of satisfaction. In order to provide these and the many other benefits of presenting arts events, generous financial and in-kind contributions are essential.
Each year, ticket sales cover approximately 50% of our costs to present high-quality artists in Potsdam. All of your support will go directly to offsetting these costs. However, gifts designated to the CPS Endowment for the Arts are permanently invested in order to help ensure that performing arts experiences are available for future generations.
As a donor, you would enjoy recognition such as acknowledgement in CPS programs, inclusion in lobby displays and invitations to special events. This recognition can remain anonymous if so chosen.
Please consider becoming a member of the CPS family! Join the many others who have come together to create great things through the arts.
Thank you!
Donations can be made online using the Secure Giving Form (above) or through out ticketing portal following a purchase. You can also give through the CPS Box Office at (315) 267-2277, Monday-Friday, 12:30-4:30 p.m.
