Your contribution sustains independent art

Tax deductible
Giving Tuesday was a few days ago.

For those using this time to support the arts, we hope you will consider Chopin Theatre Productions NFP where your contribution will sustain independent art centers. 

So far in 2023 Chopin presented 38 different shows with 453 artists/designers, seen by 22,984 people. That adds to the 2,000+ other presentations since 1990.

For more on 2023 see below.  

To support Chopin Theater - a hub for creativity and civilized discourse - please do so here.  Any amount helps financially and spiritually and is tax deductible.   

And it would help even more if you could share with your friends. 

We hope you see our dedication and the need for vibrant art centers allowing for different point of views to be explored.

Yours,
Zygmunt and Lela
and our board Alton, Marla and Maciek
