Become a Capitol Jam Sponsor

2022 Gerry Frank Amphitheater Panoramic

Thank you for being a sponsor of Capitol Jam!

The August 27 Capitol JAM is a community-sponsored event featuring local artists and vendors. The event will be centered at the newly completed Gerry Frank | Salem Rotary Amphitheater in downtown’s Riverfront Park. Capitol JAM will feature local artists providing music suitable for all ages. Capitol JAM will be presented totally free to the public.

Your generous donation will help offset our costs for presenting Capitol JAM to the community. These costs include sound and lighting equipment, artists compensation, security services, logistical and operational investments, marketing, and more. Every dollar we receive will be used specifically for Capitol JAM and will not be used for our own staff costs or for any of our other operating or maintenance activities. Any money left over after the event will be placed in a dedicated account that can only be used for future public events at Riverfront Park.

Your contribution of any amount is most welcome! We also have six named sponsor levels ranging from $250 to $10,000. Each level comes with a set of benefits for the sponsor as shown in the table.

If you are a business and able to contribute $250 or more, we would like an electronic copy of your logo so we can recognize your generosity through our social media platforms and the event’s home website.
