DONORS
Thank you to all our donors!
Because of the altruistic hearts and minds of you, our tremendous PuSh Donors, the Festival is able to impact our cultural landscape and present contemporary art that is timely, visionary, genre-bending, startling and original.
You are the people that are redefining the performing arts and connecting audiences in the spirit of imagination–the people that ensure the PuSh Festival has a future. Alongside the artists, curators, staff and volunteers, you are the people that make the PuSh Festival happen.
Thank you to our Patrons Circle members for your outstanding commitment to artistic expression, to transformative experiences and to unique shared encounters that are as diverse as our city.
Art does not exist without Patrons.
