Why Season Passes?
Every season pass purchased at the beginning of each season helps Songwriter Sanctuary:
- Provide artist guarantees, boosting artist compensation on nights when attendance/donations are lackluster
- Maintain our suggested donation policy, where no music-lover is turned away at the door for lack of funds
- Cover small administrative expenses that help the series continue to run (printing, marketing, nonprofit compliance)
- Work toward broader accessibility goals (specifically ASL interpreters at more shows)
