WEYBURN - The board of directors of the Weyburn Theatre Cooperative announced a new partnership with the Weyburn Oilwomen. The agreement will see the Oilwomen commit $25,000 in return for being named the Accessibility Sponsor for the new cinema.
“We are thrilled to partner with another great community group who do so many good things in our city,” said Sean Purdue, Treasurer of the Theatre Cooperative. “The Weyburn Oilwomen are a hardworking group of volunteers and we are thankful they share our vision of bringing the movies back to Weyburn.”
The Co-operative held a groundbreaking ceremony last week to kickoff construction of the Spark Cinema. They hope to have the foundation completed prior to year-end, with construction then pausing until the remaining funds are raised to complete the project
“This Accessibility sponsorship aligns so well with our mission, vision and values,” said Carmen Sterling, chair of the Weyburn Oilwomen.
“We are dedicated to driving positive change by supporting innovation, promoting learning and breaking barriers for a more inclusive and equitable future. We are incredibly proud to provide the funds to ensure everyone can experience the thrill of movies in Weyburn.”
Weyburn Theatre Community Service Cooperative is a non-profit organization, formed with the exclusive goal of bringing the movies back to the City of Weyburn.
