Support FSC

In its first ten years, the Franklin Stage Company has added to the cultural prominence of the arts in the Western Catskills. In recognition of the company's work and achievements, we continue to be funded – in part – by the New York State Council on the Arts. And each year we are supported by the generous contributions of our Actors' Angels, and by the kind and generous donations that come from our audience and local businesses.

But we remain urgently in need of further support. Our existence depends on it. Without further individual and business contributions, we cannot survive.

If you believe in our work and our mission, and you feel able to support us, please be as generous as you can. All contributions are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

If you would like more information about our Actors' Angels program, or if you are a business and would like further information about supporting FSC, please contact Carmela Marner.

Erna McReynolds and Tom Morgan Artists-in-Collaboration Fund

At FSC we develop our productions with artists who work in many disciplines. The set for A Midsummer Night's Dream, composed of Charles Bremer's extraordinary instruments and the integral presence on-stage of painter Simone Mantellassi in Galileo are both examples of this approach towards theatre-making.

In recognition of the tremendous generosity shown by Erna McReynolds and Tom Morgan towards FSC over the years, and with admiration for their passion for the arts, in 2008 FSC established the Erna McReynolds and Tom Morgan Artists-in-Collaboration Fund to support the vital collaborative relationships with artists which allow us to enhance our work and better serve our audience.

In 2009, FSC designates grants from the A. Lindsay and Olive B. O’Connor Foundation of Hobart, NY and the Ella Ann L. and Frank B. Holding Foundation of North Carolina to the Erna McReynolds and Tom Morgan Artists-in-Collaboration Fund enabling FSC to work with Rachelle Garniez and Brooke Robbins.

Production support for our 2007 season comes, in part, from the New York State Council on the Arts, a state agency.
