AMBOI! IS BACK!
Our annual Amboi! Fundraising Campaign is back! Join us in raising $25,000! We want you, our amazing Teater Ekamatra community, to champion diversity on stage and beyond, with us. This year your donation will be quadrupled thanks to generous matching donations from private donors and the Cultural Matching Fund.
That means, for every $1 you give, it becomes $4! Imagine the impact, your $100 donation turns into $400, amplifying your support and extending your reach 4 times over! Amboi! Your contribution directly supports the next generation of ethnic minority artists and arts leaders through our comprehensive development programmes. These include initiatives for playwrights, directors, arts managers, and Theatre for Young Audiences theatremakers. Our programmes are meticulously designed to provide emerging and experienced talents with the knowledge, resources, and platforms they need to succeed—all at no cost to them. Last year alone, we invested over $100,000 in 18 industry development initiatives, benefiting more than 100 artists, arts managers, and theatremakers.
This incredible impact was only possible because of your generous support during the last Amboi! campaign. This year, as a thank you, every donation of $50 or more to Amboi! will get you an exclusive Amboi! tote bag - designed with love by us - so you can champion diverse voices and stories wherever you go! We are calling on you, our greatest advocates, to join us in building spaces for minority voices together - the space to create, play, and dream up new possibilities.
Amboi! runs from 5 September 2024 to 10 October 2024, don’t wait - your donation can help shape the future of our arts community!
Amboi!
BE AN ADVOCATE FOR CHANGE
We believe strongly that our work contributes to the diversification of local theatre and promotes intercultural understanding. Your support will enable us to foster and nurture artists and youths of diverse backgrounds to realise their potential, produce works that inspire, and cultivate a more perceptive society through the power of theatre.
As a theatre company, we see it as our mission to bring new perspectives to the narratives that define who we are as Singaporeans, and as citizens of the world. In sharing a different perspective, we also hope to provide an insight into communities whose stories are in the background and not often heard.
2023 marks Teater Ekamatra's 35th year of preserving, celebrating, and fostering ethnic minority theatre through award-winning productions and successful development programmes which benefit both artists and youths. In this time, we have produced over 160 new works, ran more than 30 development programmes for youths and artists, and worked with more than 1000 artists from diverse backgrounds.
