BECOME AN ARTIST AMPLIFIER.
Dear Live Wire supporters and patrons of the arts,
Live Wire serves as Portland's premiere platform for artistic discovery, bringing our community face-to-face with innovative creators whose work shapes contemporary culture and sparks essential conversations.
As we approach our Fall 2025 Season, we invite you—individually or as a business—to join our Artist Amplifier program with an investment of $2000, $1500 of which is tax-deductible. This vital support will enable us to attract and fairly compensate world-class talent, with a strategic focus on creators whose voices are not often heard in our community or on public radio.
As an Artist Amplifier, you will receive:
10 complimentary preferred show tickets to host your private group and share the Live Wire experience with friends and family
VIP access via an intimate backstage meet-and-greet with featured artists and our hosts, Luke Burbank and Elena Passarello, before the show
Public recognition as our honored Amplifier during both the live performance and our nationwide broadcast
A front-row seat (literally and metaphorically!) to witness how your support transforms our stage into a platform for artistic innovation
By becoming an Artist Amplifier, you join a select group of cultural catalysts who understand that diverse artistic voices enrich our community and contribute to a more vibrant, inclusive cultural landscape.
Each Artist Amplifier directly enables us to:
Provide modest honoraria that honor artists' time and talent
Cover comprehensive travel arrangements for out-of-market guests
Expand our reach to previously untapped creative communities
Your participation as an Artist Amplifier will resonate far beyond Portland, creating ripples of impact across our nationwide audience while strengthening our local arts ecosystem.
