Chair Naming Opportunities

Our home theatre at the Polaris Centre has doubled in size! It sports a magnificent look and we are excited to be partnering with the theatre to install brand-new movable seating.

$800 now just $400 Thanks to a Generous Donor, the cost of seat dedication has been halved!

Sponsor a Chair

Your name or the name of a person you would like to honour will be elegantly engraved on a plaque affixed to the arm of a seat in The Polaris Centre for the Performing Arts. Choose a friend or family member, or honour your favourite composer.

These seats are not permanently affixed; therefore, we are unable to guarantee a seat’s location in the theatre, as it will inevitable shift as the seating is removed and replaced for various events. For this reason, we are unable to honour requests for specific seat placements.

You may donate your seat in instalments.

Seat Naming Donations are eligible for a full tax receipt less the costs of recognition plaques.

  • Each Naming Opportunity is $400

  • Donate Online or receive an invoice

    Instalments (up to 12 months) also available

* Event seating is not guaranteed in chairs bearing specific names. We reserve the right to reject any seat name where the proposed text for the engraved plaque contains unacceptable or unreasonable content.

F.A.Q.


If I make a donation to name a seat, will I receive a charitable tax receipt?
Yes, a charitable tax receipt for the full amount of your donation will be emailed to you upon receipt of your gift.

Will I be able to choose my seat?
The seating is designed to be removable for various styles of performances. We cannot guarantee that the seat will remain in the same location as it is removed and replaced for various shows.

Do I get to sit in my dedicated seat at any performance?
Naming a seat does not guarantee use of that seat at a performance.

I’m naming a seat in honour of a loved one. Will you notify them?
We would be happy to notify the honoree of your gift. Please contact us to make arrangements.

How long will my dedication be recognized on the seat?
Your seat dedication continues for the lifetime of the seats (usually 15-20 years).

How will my donation be recognized?
Donors will receive recognition on our website.

How big is the seat plaque and where will it be located on the seat?
Seat plaques are 3” (width) x 1” (height). The plaque will be affixed to the back of the seat.

How long can my inscription be?
Seat inscription can be up to 3 lines with a limit of 25 characters per line.
You will be directed to complete your inscription and donor recognition when making your donation online.

Can I split the cost of a seat with a friend or more than one friend?
If you wish to purchase a seat with someone else or with a group, please contact us to make the proper arrangements. For CRA (Tax Receipt) purposes, a confirmation letter needs to be provided.

Who can I speak to if I have more questions?
Prefer to set-up a payment schedule (up to 12 months) or make your donation through an alternative method such as over the phone, mailing a cheque, or e-transfer, please contact our offices, admin@RMSO.ca or (403) 255-9368.
