ZACH’S ANNUAL FUND Donate to help make great theatre possible. With memberships beginning at just $85, the ZACH Annual Fund is your opportunity to move beyond your seat and experience ZACH in a more intimate way.

The art of theatre inspires our imaginations, “ enhances our life experience, and helps us to see our

world and fellow humans in a different light. We have been entertained and enlightened by what we have seen on Zach’s stages, and want others—especially young people—to have that same opportunity.

Jan Pickle, Board Trustee
