This Bird Fights Fascists on Men's T-Shirt – Minnesota doesn't have to take it. You don't either. 5% to the ACLU to keep them going into what will prove to be endless fights in the coming years.

This is our moment to stand together. Our city is losing beloved arts spaces—we can’t let The Hook & Ladder be next.

🌟 Keep Our Community Stage Shining 🌟

For nearly a decade, The Hook & Ladder Theater has been more than a venue—it’s been a home for live performance, creativity, and connection. It’s where thousands of artists have shared their talent, where friends and families have gathered, and where our community has come alive through music, art, and celebration.

But today, The Hook faces one of its biggest challenges yet. Rising costs, declining ticket sales, and shifting audience habits now put this vital community space at risk. Without immediate support, our doors could close.

That’s why we’ve launched a 100% community-powered campaign to raise $75,000 by October 31st. These funds will cover critical operational costs and ensure our stages continue to host live music, charity fundraisers, and cultural events for another decade.

How you can help today:
Donate: Every dollar—big or small—keeps the lights on and the stage alive.

Share: Tell your friends, family, and community why The Hook matters to you.

Join a Campaign Team: Artists, fans, collaborators, and community members each have a unique role to play.

With your support, we can celebrate our upcoming 10-year anniversary not as the end of an era, but as the start of another decade filled with live music, creativity, and connection.

Thank you for being part of this community. Together, we’ll keep the stage shining.

With gratitude,
The Hook & Ladder Team
