Sugar Plum Gary

December 9-24, 2021

Gary didn't believe in Christmas until one magical Christmas Eve when Santa visited the orphanage where he grew up. He was the only survivor, becoming possessed by the holiday spirit and receiving his Christmas Name: Sugar Plum Gary. He has wandered the planet for years, searching for answers.

Sugar Plum Gary visits 18th & Union every December to share the cosmic nightmare that is CHRISTMAS (in a body that is shaped like somewhat beloved storyteller and comedian Emmett Montgomery), teaching us how to survive the night.

18th & Union: THE RE-EMERGENCE

Great things are done by a series of small things brought together. ~Vincent Van Gogh

Artists need spaces like 18th & Union so that they can take huge creative risks without taking huge financial risks. We’re raising money to make darn sure we remain right where we are.

We initially raised $12,500 from several generous cornerstone donors, and we're looking to match that amount from YOU, our audience & supporters.

We've reached almost $16,000 in total!

Help us get to $25K!

On this wall are our original heroes who believed in the dream of 18th & Union enough to help fund it's opening.

Joining them are fresh heroes of 18th & Union, believing in the dream of our reopening . . . our Cornerstone Donors:

Louise Butler
Pamela Charles
Elizabeth Coplan
Christine Deavel & John Marshall
Lauren Dudley
Kathryn & Robert Gannon
Duane Kelly

Help us match!

We are able to share the huge news that we have negotiated a new five-year lease with our supportive building owners! 18th & Union's future at 18th & Union is secure. With a name like ours, where else could we go?
