Putting a Pagola at The Graveyard
We're looking to have a permanent solution for the beer garden outside area in front of rooms 1-2 and between the current Graveyard Bandroom event bar and the soon-to-be-built main Graveyard Bar in the adjacent building. We've got a current temporary solution but as you can see from the photo the wind isn't kind to the tarps!!!
The choice to reach out to the community to help has come about for a few reasons. We think having this as soon as possible will create a significantly better space for everyone involved! This taps into the second reason, this venture has been costly and the delays we've faced between permits, operational hours plus more have put us well behind where we want the business to be at. It's been a situation where we've had to push our individual time and invest well beyond business funds into personal funds to make sure the doors stay open. The good news is we're at the home stretch and the support of the bands that have come through and used the space has made it possible to keep our heads above water.
We believe One Be Studios, Headstone Records and the Graveyard is going to be incredible a huge boon to the musical community and that believe and passion drives us. This is a situation where we think reaching out and opening up the ability for you to help us elevate this at a greater rate is really worth the investment.
We also think it's a pretty rad way for people to be able to put some support in that will directly benefit you and you get to know that you've helped built part of this in a different way.
We're going to also put that into physical reality. We're The Graveyard so for anyone who donates $100 to the cause we're going to make up a Graveyard Plot Plaque with your name and a customizable cause of death that we'll affix to the pagola. For anyone that puts in $500 we're going to get that etched into a communal gravestone and anyone (or any group) that put forward over $1000 we'll do an individual tombstone to go up somewhere onsite.
Budget Overview
We've already organized and put forward the main plans to the council that have been approved.
The funds raised will go towards any additional engineering approvals and plans as well as the materials and labor for the build.
The amount raised will heavily inform just how aspirational our excellent little graveyard hangout can be.
No Reward
I choose to have no reward for my pledge.
Your plaque on the pagola.
You select the name you want, your cause of humourous cause of death, and a date if you so choose.
The Communial Tombstone
Your name, cause of death, and date. Placed on a tombstone along side everyone else in the same tier.
Your own tombstone.
This will be your own personalized tombstone with your name, cause of death, and dates. Placed somewhere onsite. Yup, she's a touch morbid but it's all in good fun.
