Consider How You
Can Make A Difference
We hope that
you have had a chance to experience the excitement and beauty of El Campanil
Theatre. This wonderful center for the performing arts in Eastern Contra
Costa County is making a difference. People weary from the commute are
pleased that there is a place where they can enjoy - "Quality Music and
Entertainment - Close To Home". Others from beyond East County have come to
see a number of exciting performers such as Debbie Reynolds, The Kingston
Trio, The Limeliters, Jesse Colin Young, and Randy Newman among others.
If you know how community theatres and similar projects operate, you know
that ticket sales cover only
about half the costs of running the theatre. El Campanil Theatre
Preservation Foundation relies on donations from its patrons and sponsors to
keep producing quality and diverse productions for the community.
El
Campanil Theatre Preservation Foundation is a California Non-Profit
Charitable Organization 501(c) 3.
Our Corporate ID is: C2466562
