Vote For Funding For Center Stage!

Shelton's Center Stage Theatre is currently battling for funding from the Chase Giving Fund. Voting is free and takes about five minutes.

Would you fund the arts if it didn't cost you a cent? Well, now you can!

Shelton's Center Stage Theatre and The Connecticut Symphonic Winds have joined forces, working together to receive funds from the Chase Community Giving Foundation. Funds are distributed by public votes and can range in support dollars from $10,000 to $250,000 Voting is free and takes about five minutes on Facebook.

"If we could get your vote it would be so much appreciated," said Center Stage co-owner Gary Scarpa. "Please high school and college students, you can be especially helpful to us -- because we know you are Facebook enthusiasts, so please VOTE for us and ask everyone you know to vote for us too!"
