SB-ADaPT Festival is a project of SonneBlauma Danscz Theatre's 501 (c) 3, The Future Traditions Foundation.
Since the beginning we have operated on 100% volunteer efforts with 0% of the funds we receive applied to overhead. To the best of our knowledge, no other non-profit arts organization in our community operates in this fashion. To date we have put in over 1,000 hours of volunteer time devoted to creating, organizing, and producing our first bi-annual Festival.
In that ticket sales are not enough to cover the costs of producing the Festival we rely on the generosity of our community to make this event happen by way of volunteering to carry out the workload, providing resources in way of in-kind donations and cash donations. Funds come out of donations made to SonneBlauma Danscz Theatre and the SB-ADaPT Festival is just one of its 2011 activities. Following are the angels that are helping make this wonderful event happen and what they have contributed to SonneBlauma this season!
