Five reasons to become a member at The Plaza

The Plaza is a non-profit theater in the heart of Eatonton. We absolutely love it here; we know our neighbors; we get to know area students; and above all, we have the best network of members.

Whether it’s volunteering, cheering on musical acts or supporting our kids’ education programming, The Plaza members mean everything to us. And we would love to have you get involved.

Here are five great reasons why you should become a member at The Plaza:

You meet new people.

Whether you’re new to the area or have been here your whole life, when you join The Plaza, you join a group of like-minded people who share the same interests that you do. Through sitting at a VIP table together at one of our outdoor events, having a glass of wine at the lake, or watching grandkids in a youth performance, our members end up becoming good friends.

After COVID, social calendars have become either too full or lacking something. When you become a member at The Plaza, your social calendar fills up! You can join us outside at a concert, inside for a PAPA production, volunteer at the After School Art Program, and so on. We have lots going on and we love seeing our halls full of life.

You support a local non-profit.

The Plaza is like many non-profits; it runs off donations. Becoming a member, though, not only helps us financially, but you get rental discounts, free tickets at certain levels and pre-event parties. Being a member helps us and helps you.

So, if you want to donate financially to The Plaza, please consider also becoming a member—it will benefit both of us!

Your membership makes a huge local impact.

Memberships are our biggest form of fundraising, and these funds go directly toward our mission: bridging the arts with the immediate surrounding communities. Memberships help fund free programs like our After School Arts Program and our efforts centered around other events like Halloween, Christmas at The Plaza and May Day at The Plaza. The funds also go toward summer camps, where we serve a huge group of kids. Serving our youth is the most important aspect of what we do here at The Plaza, and membership donations help tremendously with that.

It will make you feel good.

Whenever you donate, you feel good about it. By becoming a member at The Plaza, you not only help yourself by getting discounts or even free tickets, among other benefits; you help fund a great cause. The Plaza positively impacts our community each year and without our members—you—we could not do what we do.
