About Friends of the Caisse
Formerly the The Bracebridge Arts Council (BAC), Friends of the Caisse is a not-for-profit community
organization, whose goal is to nurture, stimulate and enhance the enjoyment and understanding of the arts
while encouraging the pursuit of excellence in performance, craftsmanship and design.
Friends of the Caisse oversees operation and management of the Rene M. Caisse Memorial Theatre which
opened in 2007 as a first class performing arts facility. The Theatre is located within a modern complex that
also houses Bracebridge and Muskoka Lakes Secondary School and the Bracebridge Sports and Recreation
Complex.
Our Board of Directors is always looking for members who are energetic, motivated and have a keen interest in
promoting Arts Education and in supporting our community theatre. We need members who have special
skills or interests in fundraising, business management, community & public relations, legal and accounting
skills.
Beyond that, Friends of the Caisse works also as a fundraising committee, looking for unique ways to
encourage donors, income opportunities and volunteer contributors to help keep the theatre in operation.
Friends of the Caisse Presents … is a new initiative by the committee to bring theatre professionals in our
community to the Rene M. Caisse Stage through Board Produced Musicals and Plays. Sponsorship of these
shows brings great perks to donors who love theatre as well as giving them great community advertising reach.
