Doomsday is once again upon us . . . and that means it's a perfect time to become a sponsor!
Our mission is to bring Poe’s works to life onstage, on the air, and in the classroom in Baltimore and beyond. We do that through public events like Doomsday, by mounting full stage plays like last fall's Edgar Allan Poe’s Blood, Sweat, and Fears, and by producing our award-winning audio drama series, Poe on the Air, which will be recorded before a live audience for the first time this fall at Enoch Pratt Library’s main branch in Mount Vernon.
But we can’t do it without financial support. So we're asking you to consider making a tax-deductible donation to help us bring the works of Edgar Allan Poe to the people of Baltimore.
Your support won’t go unnoticed.
In addition to appearing on our website, your name and/or company’s name and logo will appear:
- on the schedule of readers as a supporter
- on a banner at the Doomsday 2023 event
- in a bag of thank-you gifts our VIP readers will take home with them
- in programs for all 2023 events and productions.
Here’s what your dollars can do:
$500 – commission the development of a new script
$1,200 – pay a sound designer for their work on an audio drama episode
$8,500 – produce an audio drama episode
$20,000 – produce our 2024 stage production (excluding venue)
Contact with your questions. Let's talk about how you can get involved.
