🌙 One final Power Hour. One final chance to make a difference for the arts in our community. 🎭
This theater in the heart of Downtown Culpeper is more than just a building on Main Street…it’s home.
It’s where children discover confidence, where friendships are formed backstage, where stories come to life, and where our community gathers together through the arts.
From 11 PM–MIDNIGHT, every individual donor helps Windmore Center for the Arts compete for an extra $1,000 prize during Give Local Piedmont and even a small donation can help make a huge impact because it’s based on the number of donors, not the amount given.
If you believe community theater belongs in the heart of Culpeper, we would be so grateful for your support tonight. ❤️
Help us keep the lights shining on Main Street.

From the stage, this is what we see. 🎭
Empty seats waiting to be filled with laughter, music, storytelling, applause, and community.
Every production, class, rehearsal, costume, spotlight, and standing ovation starts because people choose to support the arts.
There’s still time to support Windmore Center for the Arts during Give Local Piedmont. Every donation helps us continue creating theater and arts opportunities for children, teens, adults, and families in our community.
Help us keep the lights on, the curtain rising, and these seats filled once again. ❤️

⏰ The next Give Local Piedmont Power Hour begins at 3 PM and every single donation can help make a difference for the arts in our community!
At Windmore Center for the Arts, some of the most meaningful moments happen long before the curtain rises. They happen when a child discovers confidence for the first time on stage, when a teen finds a creative outlet and a place to belong, or when adults in our community reconnect with creativity, music, theatre, and each other.
The arts create connection, confidence, and community. Behind every production, class, rehearsal, and community event are the everyday needs that keep these opportunities possible, keeping the lights on, maintaining our space, providing costumes and sets, supporting instructors and volunteers, and making sure our doors stay open for everyone who needs a place to create and belong.
Your donation during this Power Hour helps sustain community theatre, arts education, youth programs, and cultural events right here in our community. Most importantly, it helps ensure Windmore continues to be a welcoming place where creativity can thrive for all ages.
No gift is too small, during Power Hour, every individual donation counts toward prize opportunities that could help us continue growing and serving our community. 🎭✨
Thank you for believing in the power of the arts and for supporting Windmore Center for the Arts! 💙

🎨✨ Bringing famous artwork to life for the Golden Ticket challenge!
Audrey and Scarlett stepped out of the theatre and into the world of classical portrait paintings, recreating the elegance, drama, and beauty of historic works of art using costumes, theatre sets, and a little Windmore stage magic. 🎭👑📚
From regal Baroque-inspired portraits to graceful Regency-era elegance, these recreations celebrate the creativity and artistry that live at the heart of Windmore Center for the Arts.
Every costume stitched, every set piece placed, and every performance created helps keep the arts alive in our community. Your support allows us to continue offering theatre productions, arts education, camps, performances, and creative opportunities for all ages. ❤️
Support local arts. Support community theatre. Support creativity. Donate link:

🎭 TODAY is Give Local Piedmont! 💛

At Windmore, we believe the arts should be accessible to everyone in our community and because of supporters like YOU, we’re making that happen.

This year alone, we’ve expanded free community programming, offered family-friendly events at no cost, created opportunities for local performers of all ages, and built partnerships with other nonprofits and small businesses to give back through the arts.

But the reality is: community theater is expensive. Keeping the lights on, maintaining our space, producing shows, and creating accessible programming all depend on community support.

Every donation today helps us continue providing a place where creativity, connection, and community can thrive. And because Give Local Piedmont is a 24-hour giving event, your gift can go even further through bonus funds and prizes!

✨ If Windmore has ever made you smile, inspired your child, given someone a stage to shine on, or brought our community together, please consider donating today.
