OFFICE RENTAL SPACE AVAILABLE AT HERITAGE HALL
Office space will be available at
Heritage
Hall in the near future. It is anticipated the space
will be vacant by
November
1, 2010.
The spaces will all be on the third floor of Heritage Hall.
Rental rates are based on operating costs. The operator's budget
has not been finalized so rents are approximate (the final
figures will be close to these estimates).
-
The 567 square foot tower room will be available for rent
for about $830/month.
-
#303 in the north east corner, at 592 square feet will be
about $866/month.
-
#302 in the south west corner, at 512 square feet will be
about $750/month. Since all of these rooms are on the third
floor, renters could rent more than one room on the floor to
make a larger office. Room #303 and the tower room are side
by side. Room #302 is down the hall.
Heritage Hall is run by the Heritage Hall Preservation Society
and its purpose is to maintain and restore the building. Office
tenants must be registered non-profit societies or registered

sitting on the Board of Directors of the Society. Heritage Hall
is a financially healthy organization.

Black Fabric
Velour 25oz
Inherently Flame Retarded
The Flame Retardant will
not wash out if wetted in any way
For several
years now Stagefab has been using superb craftsmanship
in
maintaining and building of Stage Drapery. Over
these years we acquired off
cuts of fabric or fabric
that does not make the grade to be made into Stage
Drapery. Sometimes these off cuts are just too short,
have small holes, have
crush marks or are misdyed.
This fabric would be perfect for that backstage
masking, riser skirts, catwalk masking or anywhere where
you just need that
piece of black to hide something.
This fabric is available free and by the box
only. Each box could have a single
piece or several
pieces. The best part of this it is free all you need to
pay
for is the shipping (a 50 yard box weighs approx
75 lbs).
Limit of 100 yards per organization and
is available on a first come first serve
basis.
Please allow a couple of days for preparation for
shipment.

Getting Started with Social Media for
Artists and Arts Organizations
You’ve heard all the hype.
Using online social networks like
Facebook, Twitter, My Space, Flikr, and
YouTube to market your theatre company
seems like a great idea. Everyone is
talking about it, and the cost is free
or low. But where do you start? How do
you know that you are reaching the right
audience? Where will you find the time
to Twitter? And what the heck is a
hashtag??
While its very true that social media is
a great way to get in touch with your
current and potential clients, learning
the interface and the etiquette can be
overwhelming. Furthermore, it’s really
easy to get lost in social media, and
the return on your investment of time
may not be what you’d hoped.
What you need is a plan.
If you:
- Are a theatre producer, marketer or
adminstrator
- Have a small marketing budget
- Have been considering getting into
social networking, or have started,
but feel like you need help
Then, this guide is for you!
This 42-page Guide includes:
- Basic Principles of Marketing
(Touchpoints, Niche, Branding, Your
Story)

Blogs, Bloggers, Facebook, Twitter,
Linkedin, Photo Sharing, You Tube)

- A 30-minute individual consultation
