BECOME A TEN FOR TEN SUPPORTER TODAY
As we step into the next decade, we ask you to join us with TEN FOR TEN— which invites sustaining support through recurring monthly tax-deductible gift donations in increments of $10 ($20, $50, $100... whatever feels right) to fuel the next ten years of BLiPSWiTCH.
Recurring gifts mean reliable funding, deeper impact, and a stronger arts community, fueling the kind of work that doesn’t always fit neatly into a theater—and if you know BLiP, you know we don’t always want to. From as low as a couple coffees a month to big bold giving that can support a whole project, it all matters and it's all meaningful.
Click BELOW to set up your monthly gift— Let’s keep dancing and transforming space for the next ten years of BLiPSWiTCH magic.
After the quick form you’ll be redirected to complete your tax-deductible donation.
If you pledge $20 per month or more, you will receive access to a BLiPSWiTCH-produced show of your choice per year starting in 2026, and we will roll out additional perks periodically according to your donor tier.
A DECADE OF DANCE, And Ten more together
From rooftops to warehouses, dive bars to open fields (and sometimes even in theaters), BLiPSWiTCH has had a blast spending the last ten years reimagining spaces and building community through movement.
To everyone who has danced and created with us, been a sponsor of our work, attended a show, donated, volunteered, or simply believed in our vision—thank you.
