HOW TO HOST YOUR NEXT FUNDRAISER WITH US!
Step 1: Book a Time & Staff the Event
Step 2: Pick a Price & Promote
Step 3: Host a Fun & Interactive Fundraiser!
HOW IT WORKS:
BOOK A TIME & STAFF YOUR EVENT
• Your 2 hour event can be held after the museum's regular visitor hours any day of the week as long as that day isn't previously booked.
• You will have access to the whole museum exhibit space. If you plan to offer your guests food, you may choose from our preferred caterers Lock Stop Cafe, Acme Fresh Market, or another museum approved vendor. Food may be eaten inside the Commons area right next to the museum or outdoors in Lock 3 Park.
• There must be someone from the organization at the museum the entire time of the fundraiser.
• You may have up to 200 guests in the museum at a time. All children must be accompanied by an adult while inside the museum.
PICK THE PRICE & PROMOTE YOUR EVENT
• You pick the cost per guest for your event. ACM keeps $5 per ticket (with a minimum of $250 to the museum) and your organization keeps the rest. Your total will be calculated at the conclusion of your event.
Example: You charge $15/ticket | ACM keeps $5/ticket |
You keep $10/ticket.
• A deposit of $100 is needed to hold your date on our calendar. Your deposit will be applied to your event total (minimum $250/event). 50% deposit is only refundable if a 2 weeks or more notice is given.
• We suggest using flyers, social media, news media, etc. to promote your event. We will provide you with a customized flyer. All you have to do is print, distribute, and spread the word!
