Thank You for Giving the Gift of Magic!
At The Music Hall, there is no gift greater than giving to others. The community around us is so important and outreach programs like Give the Gift of Magic are some of the ways we can give back.
Our fourth year of Give the Gift of Magic was a terrific success! We are so thankful for inspiration and underwriting by Morgan and Tara Rutman, help from our Community Partners, support from friends and sponsors, and also the generosity of our patrons! All these elements came together again to help The Music Hall extend a helping hand to local individuals, groups and whole families in need by gifting tickets to those who may not have otherwise been able to see the show. Each year, this is truly a community effort for all involved and benefits those right in our own neighborhoods. What a heartwarming end to the holidays!
This year, we were able to give out over 650 vouchers for free tickets to the Ogunquit Playhouse at The Music Hall production of Annie—an increase of more than 100 over last year! Our partners Haven, Big Brothers Big Sisters of New Hampshire, Arts in Reach, Families First, Goodwin Community Health, Easterseals, and Cross Roads House once again helped us tremendously by getting those vouchers into the hands of community members in need, including families, veterans, and senior citizens. Give the Gift has grown exponentially over the years, especially this one and we are overflowing with gratitude for all of the support. We are striving to help even more people this coming holiday season and can’t wait to get started.
