Support
Your support makes a difference. More concerts, more theatre, more youth art classes, more movies, more community events. Less than 50% of our total budget is covered by ticket sales and program fees. By making a gift to Waterville Creates you help sustain outstanding arts and cultural programming that is accessible to all.
