SPARK theater + dance

Relaunch in 2023!

SPARK is coming back! We are in the beginning phase of recollecting, reassessing and reimagining as we prepare to rebuild in 2023.

Do you want to add some fuel? 

1) One-time gifts definitely boost the ignition and help us climb. You can give here at GiveMN.org, or mail a check to our PO Box:

2) Monthly support is by far the engine that keeps us running. When you become a monthly supporter, you choose the amount, we send you a form to fill out, and it will be deducted by an automatic ACH withdrawal each month. ANY amount is appreciated!

3) VOLUNTEERS! Yes! Volunteers are absolutely necessary for this organization to reach it's destination of community impact. Do you have time and skill that you can offer? Let us know in which area you would like to serve: info@sparktheater.com. 

Alright, let's prepare for lift-off!

Making art + building relationships = stronger community

SPARK theater + dance's mission is to create and perform theater and dance work, notice and nurture the gifts within individuals, and be a community.
