Future Plans *EDE strives to use tickeis sales from the previous productions along with donations <br />from arts patrons, sponsors, and fundraisers to fund future productions and help us <br />grow. <br />EDE engages in annual fundraising, has member dues, and looks for spo'tsors for <br />every production. We have a very comntitted board of dance parents and community <br />members who act as boosters for our company and support our dancers in every <br />way. <br />For The Nutcrackel EDE's collaboration agreement with CWU states that 30% of <br />the ticket sales and fee of $l.500 are paid to CWU. This pays for the use of <br />McConnell Hall. CWU Lighting and Stage staff, Stage Manager, House Manager and <br />oiher expenses. <br />Also. this arrangement allows the production to be included in the CWU fheater <br />Season and therefore included in all CWU mailings and advertising, as well as on <br />the CWU website. Tickets for The Nutcracker are sold through the CWU ticket office <br />and plans are in the works to allow the Kittitas County Visitor Center as a ticketing <br />location as well, <br />EDE works io keep ticket prices low so our community members can afford to attend <br />and perhaps support us with larger donaiions over time. <br />2500 ci'rarrcter,inril <br />Application Questions'.

Both had to be <br />cancelled due to COVID-19. Our rehearsals start months ahead of the performances <br />and we were unable to secure performance and rehearsal spaces. and could not <br />gather a sufficient number of dancers to ensure successful productions. <br />2500 cha.acter lirnit <br />Additional lnformation The Nutcracker is only performed every other year. 202O would have been our <br />Nutcracker year, so we have not been able to collect daia for a Nutcracker <br />production since 2018. EDE did perform Swan Lake in 2019, but attendance was <br />tracked by the Central Washington Dance Academy and they did not collect ticket <br />sale information. <br />2500 character linrii <br />Suppofting DocumgntS Ylu sray uploacl any supporting docurnenls srch as graphs. inages. diagralrs. n]arketing nraterials. etr. <br />2018 Program cover 2.jpg 680.S9KB <br />EDE Fundraising brochure 2019-2020.pdf 544.75K5 <br />you sre allowed to subnljl u9 to -1 siilgle page IUS Letler) {locunenls in JPG.
