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!

Big news in September!

Sept. 1st: A peaceful transition of power!

We are grateful for David Gassner's years of tireless service as co-founder of 18th & Union, and its engine & driver since 2016. Now we welcome Peggy Gannon as our new Producing Director! She brings decades of experience as a local producer, director, actor, and administrator. Her deep ties and commitment to the local artistic community make her ideal for this position.

Sept. 10th: Five More Years!

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?

Sept. 20th: We welcome some new roommates!

We are thrilled that Brown Soul Productions will become a Resident Company at 18th & Union! BSP's mission is to provide a platform that nurtures and amplifies the voices of women of color through the development and production of new creative works.

Sept. 30th: Professionalizing our staff!

Starting in 2022, we will be transitioning our volunteer staff to paid staff. This is HUGE GREAT NEWS!
