Thank you to our current underwriters for your generous support of Ragtag Cinema.

Ragtag Cinema Underwriting Program

What?

  • A first-time and rare opportunity for a maximum of 6 local businesses, each with category exclusivity, to have an on-screen presence at Ragtag Cinema.
  • Prior to every film shown at Ragtag, a locally produced, 30-second bumper expressing the importance of Ragtag programming will be followed with the message "RAGTAG PROGRAMMING UNDERWRITTEN BY..." Under this message three brand images will appear, on-screen individually for three seconds each.

When?

  • Your brand's image will appear on every other screening throughout the 12 months of this agreement — an average of 18 images per week or more than 900 times per year.
  • Your brand will be presented at some point before every regular feature film playing at Ragtag, so that you will reach all of our diverse audiences.
  • These bumpers will not appear during Citizen Jane or T/F screenings, or other special private screenings.

Who?

  • Ragtag's average audience member is in the 45+ age demographic; many have graduate-level degrees and a generous disposable income.
  • Ragtag's audience sizes vary, with capacities in our two theatres ranging from 65 to 135.

Why?

Ragtag Cinema is a 501c3 arts organization. We rely on community support from corporate underwriting and individual memberships to fund the enriching and thought provoking films, both fiction and non-fiction, that provide an enlightened look into many compelling issues.

How?

  • A cash contribution of $4,000 will provide your business with this on-screen promotion for 12 consecutive months.
  • This puts your cost at .30¢ per impression, based on number of Ragtag attendees over the past 12 months.
