Crowd-funding to save convergence-continuum's theater
by convergence-continuum via NEohioPAL 24 Oct '16

CROWD-FUNDING SITE TO SAVE CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM'S ARTISTIC HOME, THE LIMINIS THEATER Dear theatre supporters, The continued existence of convergence-continuum is in jeopardy as we face the prospect of losing the Liminis Theater after the end of this year. Earlier this year, we launched a fundraising campaign to purchase it. So far we've raised $86,000 of the $130,000 needed by year's end. So, that means $44,000 to go, as the end of the year draws very near. Part of the campaign is a crowd-funding site on Generosity.com at https://www.generosity.com/community-fundraising/convergence-continuum-s-sa… [1]. There's a cool video there, and further details of our situation. Even small donations help, especially if contributors spread the word by forwarding and posting to friends. (Crowd funding only works when a crowd knows about it!) Thank you! convergence-continuum "The convergence-continuum theater company richly deserves to continue its existence, so if you can afford to contribute money to their urgent fundraising effort,you should visit their website at convergence-continuum.org. And please be generous." (Christine Howey, _Scene _Oct. 19, 2016) Links: ------ [1] https://generosity.com/community-fundraising/convergence-continuum-s-save-t…
