INSTRUCTIONS FOR REQUESTING A TICKET DONATION The following are guidelines for issuing complimentary tickets to organizations requesting donations. Horizon Theatre Company gives over $6,000 worth in auction donations every year. All we ask in return is that the organizations write to one of our government funding sources to let them know how important arts funding is to your organization and/or to your community. By thanking them for funding the arts, you help assure that it keeps on happening! For a sample letter and commissioner contact information, scroll to the bottom of the page.

LETTER (adapt as needed) Current Date Mr. William "Bill" Edwards Dear Mr. Edwards: I am writing as a supporter of community arts funding. I understand and welcome the Fulton County Board of Commissioners' unwavering support of community arts organizations in Atlanta. Your support is crucial and will facilitate the success and continued growth of Atlanta's arts organizations. As an employee of a non-profit organization, we depend on the kindness of citizens and businesses of our community to help fund our programs. Most often, our fundraising events include silent auctions and we solicit throughout the community for auction items. We have received enormous amounts of tickets from the arts community, including Horizon Theatre Company. Their commitment to building stronger partnerships within Atlanta is to be applauded. Please continue to support the arts in Atlanta. Without them, we are all affected. Sincerely, |
