There's something we want you to know.

Saturday night, with a storm swirling around us, over 200 people showed up at Globe Hill to celebrate Stissing Center. They came in the rain, dressed up, ready to be together. And a big part of why that evening was possible, why any of this is possible, is you.

Your support isn't just a donation. It's a declaration that the arts matter, that this community deserves a place to gather, to be moved, to be surprised, to connect with something larger than the everyday. We believe that, and clearly you do, too.

What you're helping to build here isn't just a performance space. It's a place where people find something they didn't know they were looking for. That's not a small thing. In a world that can feel fragmented and rushed, having somewhere to slow down and be present together, that's essential. You're making it happen.

So from everyone at Stissing Center: thank you. Genuinely. We don't take it for granted.

And when you can, we hope you'll come by. Something wonderful is always waiting for you here. Come find your center.

With gratitude,
Patrick and the Stissing Center team
