WARSAW — Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts raised nearly $20,000 on Thursday during its annual Day of Giving fundraiser.

As a nonprofit organization, Wagon Wheel relies on two major fundraising efforts each year: a Year-End Giving campaign during the holiday season and the Day of Giving in the spring.

Sam Engle, Communications and Donor Relations Coordinator, expressed his appreciation for the community’s ongoing support.

“When we became a nonprofit in 2010, it became clear just how deeply this community loves Wagon Wheel,” Engle said. “Time and again, I’m reminded why our theater calls Kosciusko County home. Last Thursday’s incredible response is proof of how vital this work is, and how essential it is that it continues right here. We’re so grateful to share powerful stories that inspire, transform, and connect us with our audiences this summer.”

Tickets for Wagon Wheel’s upcoming 70th record-breaking professional summer season are available now and can be purchased at wagonwheelcenter.org or by calling the box office at (574) 267-8041.

Since 1956, Wagon Wheel has produced in-house professional theatre, earning a national reputation for excellence and serving as a launching pad for artists who go on to perform on Broadway stages, National tours, and beyond.
