Guthrie Business Council

"The Guthrie Theater is a jewel in the cultural crown of the Twin Cities ... a community asset that we use both in recruiting new executives and encouraging new businesses to locate to Minnesota."
- Karen Himle, Senior Vice President Corporate and Government Affairs, St. Paul Travelers

The Guthrie Theater has become a way of life in the Twin Cities, contributing millions of dollars to the local economy and helping make the community a great place to work and do business. The Guthrie Business Council consists of companies both large and small who make annual gifts to the Guthrie.

Contributions to the Guthrie Business Council provide companies with an array of benefits and recognition, enjoyed by both employees and customers alike. These benefits include complimentary and discounted tickets, discounted use of Guthrie spaces for receptions, recognition in publications and invitations to exclusive donor events. Contributions may be given anytime during the year and are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
