Support Teen Night in Salida
Donation protected
In the Fall of 2016, Sellars Project Space began meeting with individuals with the intention of creating a Teen Night in the area for local youth.
It took nearly two years, but we are ready to launch this new program. Through a partnership with Seasons Cafe and Fun Street Family Arcade (who can provide the space for this weekly event), Chaffee County Youth Alliance, Boys & Girls Clubs of Chaffee County, Family and Youth Initiatives, and the Salida High School's music department, we have the event staffed.
Students will be managing the stage and presenting local youth performers, spoken work and poetry slam sessions, local youth announcements, and youth open mic nights.
Seasons Cafe has developed a special menu that is simple and affordable for area youth, popcorn and chips will be provided, as well as coffee (donated by BV Roasters) and drinks will be available.
We have created our budget for 2018, and in order to make sure that the performers are paid every week, that snacks are available for everyone (no matter their financial standing), and to offer activities, we need to raise approximately $400 per month.
Sellars Project Space's PfCA Program (Partnership for Community Action) has purchased a movie screen, a projector, and mounting equipment to be used for teen movie nights and special presentations - but we still need a sound system.
That brings our 2018 need to $15100. If you, your business, and/or local community organization would like to sponsor this event we are happy to list you on all of our promotional materials and in the media.
