Partnership Opportunities

Did you know that ticket sales usually cover less than half the costs of presenting an artist at the Hall? The Hall relies on corporate and private partnerships to underwrite the great performances our patrons have come to expect at the Hall. Partnership opportunities provide underwriters with the option to list their company logo in Hall print materials, as well as other benefits, such as tickets, premium seating opportunities for select shows, and use of the Fuldner Lounge to host receptions, if available. Partners are invited to the annual Preview Party each spring, when the Hall announces the new season of shows.

For more information on the benefits of partnering with the Hall, call Kay Litchy at 417.836.8416 or e-mail KayLitchy@missouristate.edu.

ART SPECIFICATIONS FOR SEASON PROGRAM ADS

Technical Information

We would prefer to receive all ads digitally. If your artwork can be converted at our office, we will do so. If conversion must be out-sourced, the costs of doing so will be passed on to you. The Hall employs graphic design students that may convert your file, but will not be making changes to logo, art design, or taglines. Extensive changes will be subject to additional billing. All files must be accompanied by laser prints of the ad. Other materials will be accepted for reproduction, but we will not accept responsibility for any reproduction problems as a result of less-quality client supplied materials.

Applications & Media

Additional Giving Opportunities

The Hall strives to provide the highest quality performances and experiences for our patrons. Over the years, we have created special programs that ensure the arts will continue to be accessible to our community. Please consider making an additional donation to support one or more of these endowments. Your gift will be added to the specified endowment fund which will add to the funding that is available for support of these projects each year.

The Children's Ticket Fund Endowment - provides tickets to under served youth to attend entertaining and cultural events at the Hall. Contributions from the caring members of our community make the Children's Ticket Fund possible.

The Virginia C. Bussey Opera Endowment - provides annual assistance for presenting opera productions at the Hall in partnership with the local opera company whenever possible.

The Classics Endowment - provides underwriting support for the presentation of professional artists performing classic literature, music, dance or theatre.

Juanita K. Hammons Hall Endowment - this fund provides for the Hall in the greatest area of need. In the past, funds from this endowment have been used for repairs, stage refinishing, acoustic curtains and other important maintenance and upgrades.
