Made of Cedar
Every year, The Cedar needs to raise at least $100,000 from patrons like you to support our general operations. With your help, we can present the great performers we’ve always brought to the Twin Cities, expand and diversify our programming, and increase access with strategic partnerships and free events. We want as many people as possible to enjoy arts and cultural experiences at The Cedar. Your donation supports these access programs:
- Concerts for Youth (in partnership with Project SUCCESS) provides local youth with free tickets and transportation to Cedar events. Last year, we served 2,000 young people through this program.
- Next season, we will launch Cedar Avenue to Art, a new program to engage the Twin Cities' East African community with Cedar programming (made possible with funding from the Minnesota State Arts Board from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund).
- Cedar Outdoors features free music on The Cedar’s patio every Thursday night in July: Yet another way for more people to enjoy live music!
If we raise $10,000 between now and the end of July, The Cedar will kick off its 2010/2011 season with a free concert event. Show you are Made of Cedar! Donate today by clicking the "donate" button.
