Victoria's MayDay Fundraising Page

Emergent work is happening at In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre and I invite you to join me in this!  I am a member of the Board of Directors and over the last two years, HOBT has gone through some immense change. The HOBT staff and board have been working tirelessly to transform the business model and programming to meet this current moment with abundance - creating a way forward that is sustainable for everyone! 

Together we are working to build the community of radical care and resilience we all want to live in.  Which is why I ask you to be part of this work with HOBT.  

As part of my role as a board member, I have a personal goal of raising $10,000 as we work to honor the seed of MayDay with strong roots sprouting forth representing our deeply held values:  Environmental Justice, the Labor Movement, Queer Community and BIPOC Leadership.  These roots inspire and guide all HOBT programming as we work to embody the values of MayDay in every aspect of our organization.  This work matters to me in this time and space because we are centering BIPOC & LGBTQ+ voices in the way that we compensate artists, empower staff and engage with our community.

You can be a part of tending to the MayDay seed in multiple ways:

• As a monthly donor, you tend to MayDay each month, ensuring that it sprouts year after year. Your gift of $10/month (or any amount that fits your budget) ensures a healthy and thriving MayDay Celebration for years to come. 
• Make a one time gift. Our one time donors have always been an integral piece of contributing to MayDay. We know that when it comes to cultivating growth, every moment of care helps.

By joining with others in South Minneapolis and beyond, you are working to grow a MayDay Celebration that offers a truly accessible, equitable, inter-generational experience in May 2021 and beyond.
