What is there to do in Fort Wayne that actually supports locals?
Fort Wayne creatives, business owners, artists, makers, performers, hospitality people, and experience-builders:
I’m looking to intentionally collaborate with local businesses and individuals to help create synergy around Bedtime Stories Theatre at The Local Archive.
This isn’t traditional theatre. It’s immersive, interactive, nostalgic, weird, heartfelt, cozy, improvisational storytelling built inside a massive blanket fort environment. We’re trying to create something that feels less like “watching a show” and more like stepping into an experience.
I believe experiences become stronger when multiple people and businesses contribute to the ecosystem around them.
I’d love to connect with:
- Restaurants & bars
- Coffee shops & dessert vendors
- Musicians & performers
- Visual artists
- Photographers/videographers
- Boutique owners
- Hotels/Airbnbs
- Local influencers/content creators
- Event planners
- Sponsors
- Anyone wanting to create memorable community experiences
Ideas could include:
- themed cocktails or menu items
- collaborative events
- cross-promotion
- immersive pop-ups
- audience perks/packages
- giveaways
- sponsorships
- installations
- pre/post-show experiences
- downtown partnerships
- creative experiments honestly
The goal is to help create more energy, connection, and momentum not just for the show, but for everyone involved.
If you’ve ever wanted to build something experiential, community-centered, artistic, or just plain different in Fort Wayne, let’s talk.
