How You Can Support Matthews Playhouse
Donating to Matthews Playhouse is an investment in the arts and the community. Your contribution supports the creation of captivating performances that entertain, educate, and inspire audiences of all ages.
By funding our productions, educational programs, and community outreach initiatives, you help provide a platform for local talent, foster a love of the arts in young people, and ensure that diverse and high-quality theatrical experiences remain accessible to everyone.
Your support makes it possible for us to continue bringing stories to life, enriching the cultural fabric of our community, and offering transformative experiences that resonate with audiences long after the curtain falls.
If you prefer, you are always welcome to mail a check or money order rather than donating online. Please indicate what fund you would like to donate to, and provide us with a return address so we can send you a donation tax letter.

The General Fund
We rely on the generosity of our supporters to maintain a margin of excellence in all our programming. Income from classes, camps, and shows alone is insufficient to ensure that quality arts programming remains available and affordable to the greater Matthews area. Your support is crucial in bridging this gap, allowing us to continue offering exceptional artistic experiences to our community.
Become A Recurring Donor
We depend on the support of our community to provide the level of programming and quality that Matthews Playhouse is known for. Recurring donors pledge to give annually to Matthews Playhouse's general fund. Each gift level, starting at just $50, comes with benefits that our supporters can enjoy throughout the year. You can feel good that you are making a difference for the arts in our community. Email contact@matthewsplayhouse.com for information!
Our Scholarship Funds
The Courtney Leigh Ballard Scholarship Fund
This scholarship fund gives children the opportunity to participate in classes and summer camps at Matthews Playhouse. Twice a year, we award scholarships based on financial need. We pride ourselves on never having to turn away a child from camps or classes due to an inability to pay.
The Sponsor-A-Student Scholarship Fund
This scholarship fund provides the opportunity for children from Title I Schools to attend a live theatre performance at Matthews Playhouse with their class or grade level. This has had a huge impact over the past decade in providing meaningful arts experiences to children in our surrounding school systems.
