Ways to Help

The New Hopeville Comics finally has a space big enough to grow into—now we need help filling it! Here are ways you can help:

Frequent Flyer Miles – Two major contributors to our project--the director and costume designer--live in North Carolina and have volunteered their time and creative energy. It is our wish to provide transportation without expense or discomfort to them.

Extra Bedroom(s) – Similarly for the out-of-towners we need to provide them with a roof over their heads. For the director it would need to be for most of the month of February and about a week into March (tentatively February 8 – March 14, 2009). The Costume designer would need about a week at the beginning of March (tentatively March 2 – 9, 2009). Knowledge of cheap sublets is also valuable.

Host a Night of Music/Fundraiser – If you have a nice location for interested contributors to gather, we will provide entertainment and hors d’oeuvres for the evening.

Rehearsal Space – We have a rehearsal space for the band and cast, however, we’re seeking alternatives for backup. If you know a relatively accessible location where a large group can gather (or even sometimes a small one) please let us know.


Make a Tax-Deductible Donation – Some of the things we are working hard to raise money for include: lights; sets; costumes; stipends for cast and crew; comic illustrations; posters and other marketing material.
