Support IU Auditorium

Contributions from Circle of Friends members, businesses, and local organizations represent IU Auditorium’s single largest and most important source of income, accounting for more than 48% of the annual operating budget. Ticket sales and financial support from Indiana University, combined, make up just 52% of the Auditorium’s budget. We rely on your assistance to cover all operating expenses in order to deliver the kind of excellence on the stage and in our many programs for children, students, and under-served communities that you—and they—have come to expect. Your membership is truly vital to our mission and financial well-being.

“Over the years, my husband and I have contributed to IU—mostly to athletics. But once we moved to Bloomington, we saw a much greater need: the IU Auditorium. Discovering the Auditorium gave me new passion. Where else on a campus in the Midwest could you ever find such a gem?” —Natasha (Tosh) Swingley
