Northern Starz Center for the Performing Arts

Northern Starz is facing an immediate financial need to sustain our operations and continue providing the high-quality performing arts programs our community loves. We must raise $8,000 to cover essential operating expenses through the end of 2025 — funds that are critical to keeping our doors open and our programs thriving.

Your contribution can make a direct impact:

• Pay the rent: $4,200/month

• Support phone & internet services: $320/month

• Cover insurance costs: $605/month

• Or, give any amount to help us meet our goal.

It’s a common misconception that ticket sales and participation fees cover these expenses — unfortunately, they do not. That’s why your support is vital right now. Every dollar helps us continue bringing the magic of the arts to life for students and families.

Thank you for believing in our mission and for helping Northern Starz remain a place where creativity, community, and performance shine.

The History of Northern Starz in Ramsey goes back to 2012. We are a non-profit, educational, and performing arts center in Ramsey, MN

Our Vision Statement

Bringing vibrant cultural experiences to all families within the North Metro community.

For years, Northern Starz has inspired our community through theater, music, and dance — but this year, the loss of vital arts grants has created a funding gap. Your support is urgently needed to keep our programs running and accessible for students of all ages and abilities.

Every dollar helps us cover essential costs, keeping tuition affordable and ticket prices low so everyone can experience the magic of the performing arts. Please consider a tax-deductible gift of $50, $100, or any amount today — your generosity will make a lasting difference in the lives of our students and help ensure the curtain continues to rise at Northern Starz.

Welcome to Northern Starz Center for the Performing Arts, a nonprofit home for creativity, community, and connection located in Ramsey, MN. Since 2012, Northern Starz has been a place where the transformative power of theater, music, and dance brings people together — a place where young artists find their voices, friendships are formed, and stories come to life on stage. What began as a small educational theater has blossomed into a vibrant performing arts center, inspiring students from preschool to seniors through hands-on experiences that teach, challenge, and uplift.

But the truth is — we can’t continue this journey without you. As a nonprofit, Northern Starz depends on the generosity of our community to keep our programs accessible, our lights shining, and our doors open to all who seek to create, learn, and belong. Ticket sales and participation fees cover only a fraction of what it takes to operate; it’s the compassion and support of donors like you that make the difference.

Your contribution helps us continue providing inclusive, high-quality arts education to individuals of all ages and abilities — from children discovering the thrill of their first performance to seniors rediscovering joy through storytelling and self-expression. Every dollar you give nurtures creativity, builds confidence, and strengthens the cultural heartbeat of our community.

Together, we can ensure that Northern Starz remains a place where everyone — regardless of background or experience — can shine on stage and beyond. Please consider making a donation today and help us keep the magic of the performing arts alive for generations to come.
