From July to September 2015, we ran a successful Indiegogo campaign which raised just over $3000. Some of that money went to costs directly associated with the campaign perks – t-shirts, stickers, and buttons – while some went to purchase new sound and lighting equipment now in use for our summer CaRaVaN at the Cube events and other mobile Purple Room events.

The tangible perks offered such as shirts, stickers, and buttons have long been distributed, but there were many perks (event tickets, drinks, and venue rentals) dependant on a physical Purple Room 2.0 opening.

Since that hasn’t happened – and with the current success of the Purple Room operating regular and one-off events at some great venue partners throughout the city, it likely won’t – we wanted to make sure those who contributed to our cause expecting specific perks were still able to receive a reasonable replacement.

Beneath each previous Campaign Perk below, we list in italics the options available to make up for the perk we aren’t able to provide without a physical venue. You can reach Paul at info@purpleroom.ca to discuss this further.
