COLLIDE is a Twin Cities based non-profit performing arts company dedicated to creating original
narrative jazz dance musicals. This fall we will be hosting our 6th annual fundraising event, Building
Bright Futures, on October 12, 2019 at our rehearsal studios in St. Paul.

Our fundraiser will feature silent auction and live auctions, complimentary beverages and appetizers as
well as a performance from COLLIDE Theatrical Dance Company and guest artists. The largest portion of
the annual budget for COLLIDE will be raised at this event. The most important values for COLLIDE are; 1. Maintain accessible and low-ticket prices. 2. Create familyfriendly programming for audiences of ages 3. Use live musicians and live music for every performance 4. Pay competitive rates to some of the Twin Cities top talents in music, dance and acting. 5. Provide free on-site childcare for all our parent artists. 6. Create equity and inclusion for all of our artists,audiences and community partnerships.

We are asking for your kind consideration and support for this year's fundraising event. The funds
raised with your donation will help support local dance, theater and their associative arts, and continue
to bring rich dance and theatrical experiences into the vibrant Twin Cities arts community. In exchange
for your contribution, all donors will receive brand recognition in our event program, on social media
and email marketing campaigns, and our website. We anticipate attendance of 150-200 guests.
