Want to Sponsor Write Club Chicago?
The Ask
Small Team, Big Things
We are a small team of freelancers pooling our collective decades of industry experience to make Write Club happen. Our goal is to have it thrive sustainably, not just happen.
Currently, Write Club Chicago is seeking funds to maintain baseline operations. This includes the cost of producing, hosting, marketing, filming/editing, website, Combatant (artist) pay and administrative costs.
We invite you to be part of an extraordinary, original live arts battle.
Join Us
Get your name, your business, and your goods in front of a captive audience, aged 25-65, with disposable income. Our crowd LOVES supporting local shops, bands, bars, food, shows and more.
As a sponsor, your message will be amplified in the 150 seat capacity backroom at Gman Tavern: digital ads, element naming, pure celebration of your existence, for all to see.
There are many options available. We stand by one of the rare true clichés: every little bit helps.
