Posted project update #457 Hours to Go!
Post CommentHello to you, our 93 wonderful backers! We are moved and filled to the brim with thanks to all of you for your support, however grand or small. We are 57 hours away from our deadline, and about $700 short of our goal. Get your rally caps on! Spread the word! You also have the option of raising your giving level by a few bucks, if you are able.
Again, we are abundantly grateful to all of you for your generosity. The first ever Chicago Fringe Festival will be far better, because of you. Can you believe it? The opening of Fringe is less than a month away!
