NEWS from the
Save the Tower Theatre Demonstration Committee*
(*Affiliated with the Fools but not JUST the Fools)
We're a group of concerned Tower supporters who oppose the sale - and subsequent necessary rezoning- of the heart and center (and namesake) of our beloved neighborhood to an evangelical Foursquare church.
Our committee is made up of residents, artists, business owners, and non-profit organizations who value and love our uniquely special district and are determined to help maintain its integrity. We are working tirelessly to support the neighborhood stakeholders - especially the business owners- who will suffer greatly from this transaction.

OUR FACT SHEET.
Go HERE to see our Fact Sheet response to the misleading FAQ document that Adventure Church put out.
THE COMMUNITY LETTER.
We published the Save the Tower community letter (created with our friends from Rogue Festival) on Munro Review, along with an in depth interview with our Creative Director, Haley White. Then, we're mailing out hard copies to various community leaders. You can visit Munro Review to see the letter and signatures once they're published. We will eventually add more digital signatures here.

THE SAVE TOWER FUND
If you would like to support our efforts financially, you can text SAVETOWER to 44321 or visit http://bit.ly/SAVETOWER. Funds will go to our advocacy efforts and, if we raise enough, our hope is to be able to use the majority of the money to support struggling Tower District businesses that are hurting because of their dedication to keeping our community safe during this pandemic.
Another place worth sending your spare change is the Save the Tower Theatre Legal Fund. Money donated here goes directly to supporting Sequoia Brewing and other local businesses as they fight to have their legal rights recognized and be given the opportunity to purchase the Tower Theatre and complex, maintain its current land use and zoning, and safeguard the entire district from any possible rezone and resulting economic damages.
ART AND MERCH
Stay tuned! We're not trying to monetize off of this crappy situation, but because we are an arts collaborative working to protect an arts district, we have had some amazing artists who have created some Tower-themed work for us. We're in the process of turning that art into things you can buy to show your support for our district, support these artists in their career, and help contribute to our fight!
