3 65th Anniversary Gala Proposal / 3 SPONSORSHIP PROPOSAL In a world consumed by safety concerns, social media, video games and technology, along with budget cuts for arts programs, children have fewer outlets to make creative choices, contemplate new ideas, and express themselves than ever before. The Naples Players provides this necessary outlet and in turn changes peoples lives: creativity flourishes, academics improve, and avenues for success and self-confidence develop. This year we invite you to support The Naples Players mission through a sponsorship of our 65th Anniversary Gala The Sapphire Soirée. The Gala will be held on February 8, 2019 at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Resort, Naples and includes a champagne reception, live auction, dinner & dancing. Building on The Naples Players 65-year history as one of the most highly rated theatres of its kind in the nation, we look to our next 65 years and beyond with a clear vision and the stewardship to build on our proven foundation by fostering new & innovative ideas, expanding our infrastructure to meet proven trends, and embracing innovations in theater design.
