Werklund Cemtre (formerly Arts Commons) is a not-for-profit organization and a federally registered charity that is transforming community through the power of art. Ticket sales, venue rentals, and other income only cover 66% of our annual $15M operating budget, leaving a $5.1M fundraising gap. By making a tax-deductible donation, your support helps us sustain, enrich, and grow our artistic programming, support the development of our local artists, and expand our arts education curriculum.
