A note from Rob: Thanks for coming to my donation page for the New York Neo-Futurists. If you are here, you probably know that I have been a Neo-Futurist for a good amount of time and that I love working with the people in this company. This year we have made so many changes, and we still keep creating new and vital work as a collective. One of the major changes is how we do things--how we gather--and these days it is mostly digital. So that is how we are fundraising and doing our 2020 Gala to support the company. Any amount helps. Thank you! The Gala itself is over, but we are still striving toward our company goal of 50K Below is more information for you to put it further into context. Thank you!
2020 for the NYNF: The New York Neo-Futurists are an award-winning collective of artists who are dedicated to making accessible theater. The pandemic has threatened the New York Neo-Futurists' existence and mission of making accessible theater. When we shut down our weekly production of The Infinite Wrench, in true Neo-Futurist style, we pivoted towards making our unique theater virtual with a podcast, Hit Play, and a live online version of our signature show, CyberWrench. Sales from our weekly show, The Infinite Wrench, accounted for 55% of our yearly income, and with your support, we will continue making virtual performances for you until we are able to gather in person again.
Some perks: All donations support the company, and if you donate at these levels, you'll receive:
$500+ Donors receive an annual pass to The Infinite Wrench starting as soon as production resumes. ($500 is one artist's monthly pay during the shutdown)
$250+ Donors receive a t-shirt mailed to you! ($250 is the cost of CyberWrench expenses for one performance)
$30+ Donors receive a specially curated playlist of 15 plays spanning the history of the New York Neo-Futurists! ($30 is the cost for one month of web-hosting)
