Support Cal Poly Arts

It’s your generous donations that enable us to bring the magic of the performing arts to life.
The revenue generated from ticket sales merely scratches the surface of the substantial expenses associated with presenting a high caliber performing arts season, as well as providing transformative artist residencies, masterclasses, workshops and other engaging experiences to community members and students.

Thank you for supporting live performing arts on California’s Central Coast!

  • For a magical moment we share in darkness the light of the stage and who inhabits it with joy and skill. We forget gruesome realities and come to believing again in the humanity of the world. Leaving our seat a little taller, more proud, a content heart. We give where we can with donations and time to keep the spirit alive. Knowing that we are making a difference !

  • We are so impressed by the caliber of artists Cal Poly Arts brings to SLO (especially in dance). You bring in the same caliber/variety of artist of any big city community arts program and you can’t beat the community access or the ticket prices.

  • The arts - all of them: performing, visual, literary, and culinary - are the core of all of us, and our shared human history. To consider the arts as mere novelty or unnecessary luxury is a sort of obliivion to what they give to all of us, now and throughout time. I give to the arts because it’s giving back to everything it has already and continues to give to me - con mucho gusto!

  • Thank you Cal Poly Arts for continuing to provide access to a wonderful variety of performances for our students, it is an invaluable service. It was especially nice to attend the theater. Noel Gaulin’s performance was incredible and the icing on the cake after reading the book. Having him come to our class the next day and genuinely engage everyone with the message of having fun was so special.  Thank you for sharing the arts with us.

    Satia, 4th – 6th grade teacher

  • We give to Cal Poly Arts because the season's programming helps us discover artists we would otherwise never have the opportunity to experience; this enlivens our souls and leaves us with vivid memories that stay with us always.
