Culture Shock Miami celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2014-2015 and you are invited to once again join our Department in cultivating the next generation of arts audiences. As you know, Culture Shock Miami is a simple and highly effective audience development concept that targets high school and college students ages 13-22. The program promotes and offers $5 tickets to the best cultural and performing arts events in Miami-Dade County and two-for-$5 tickets to museums.

To join and provide us with an allotment of tickets for the 2014-2015 season, please complete our new online Ticket Donations form available on our website.

Introducing young people to the arts now is key to their future participation and to sustaining the development of Miami-Dade County’s vibrant cultural community. As a partner, your complete list of offerings will be marketed to a specific consumer and your organization will be featured in the following marketing tools: 

• Program's website, www.CultureShockMiami.com;

• Social networking sites - Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram; and
• Our ticketing system's calendar and searchable database, TicketWeb.com, as well as, Ticketmaster.com. 

In addition, we can provide your organization with our program logo to be included in your collateral materials, season brochures and/or programs.
