You have the power to bring PORT OF ENTRY to life
Your support will help build this living testament to the immigrant stories of Albany Park, co-created and performed by teens who live, learn and dream here.
Together we will make Port of Entry a beacon of resilience, understanding and hope in Chicago’s cultural landscape. Through Port of Entry we will:
- Double the number of teens employed as APTP youth artists
- Triple the number of audience members who experience live APTP performances each year
- Train a new generation of teaching artists in APTP’s approach to youth development and theater making
Give to Port of Entry today and co-create something extraordinary.
Port of Entry is a turning point for APTP, and transforms one of our biggest challenges into an opportunity – meeting the ever-increasing demand for our programs and performances from teens eager to join our creative community, audiences hungry to experience our unique theatrical journeys, and teaching artists keen to learn our methods.
We invite you to join the circle of philanthropic leaders with the strongest commitment to our youth ensemble who have already contributed over $2 million to Port of Entry.
Those who give at the Memory Makers level will be recognized in a special area in the Port of Entry building created by APTP’s world-class scenic and props designers.
To learn more about making a major gift pledge to Port of Entry, please contact David Feiner, APTP's co-executive director, at david@aptpchicago.org or (773) 866-0875.
