Increase your support for est and sponsor our next benefit night!

Benefit Nights during our Mainstage productions allow us to honor the artists we work with, celebrate the stories they share with our community, and share this revelry with patrons in our community. Contributions made to these events impact our programming throughout the year and allow sustained development with our artists across our various programs.

sponsorship levels

Each sponsorship level comes with a specific number of tickets to the event and performance. You are welcome to use them as you would like to attend with friends or family. You also have the option to donate some of your tickets to the artists in the EST community so they may celebrate the work with us as well.
