Cabaret Theatre and
Athenaeum Foundation join together for a new type of fundraiser
- Story on page 4
T
HE END OF 2007 BROUGHT A NUMBER OF significant changes to the Athenaeum and to the organizations it houses.Cassie Stockamp became president of the Athenaeum Foundation, succeeding Phil Watts, who retired after 14 ground-breaking years at the helm of the organization. Mark Kesling became chief executive officer of the American Cabaret Theatre, taking over from Rob Bullock, who left ACT after two years to focus on his family’s business.
And, at the start of 2008, Karin Ogden moved in as execu- tive director of the YMCA at the Athenaeum, succeeding Ryan Brady, who had departed to take a job with the Central Indiana Community Foundation.
Another change involved an organization itself – Young Actors Theatre – which moved back into the Athenaeum when its home of late, the Old Centrum, was targeted for closing.

REETINGS FROM THE Athenaeum. We would like to thank Phil Watts for his loyalty and commitment to developing a firm foundation – physically and metaphorical- ly – for the Athenaeum. Under his leadership the building was salvaged and many relationships were established that have provided the basis for the building’s future. His 14 years of hard work are greatly appreciated, and we look forward to his continued visits and input and wish him much joy during his retirement.Frank Lloyd Wright once said, “I know the price of success: dedication, hard work, and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen.” There are many opportunities available to the Athenaeum Foundation that will allow us to realize the success that Wright envi- sioned. At our strategic planning session the Trustees and staff came to consensus on several items that create a vision of a thriving community center serving a vibrant urban community with an empha- sis on the Freethinkers’ principals of
“Sound Mind, Sound Body.”
It will take the efforts of many individ- uals, volunteers and organizations to achieve the vision we are setting for this building, so stay tuned and be willing to answer our call to help create this lasting legacy for our community.
An integral piece of our vision
includes the organizations which continue to use the building as was originally intended. We have new leaders in these organizations who are excited to work together to create strong programming and creative ways to use this building.
Mark Kesling is the new chief operat- ing officer of the American Cabaret Theatre and brings with him not only a background in theater, but a willingness to work closely with the Foundation to cre- ate programs that benefit all.
Karin Ogden’s YMCA experience brings an operational eye which will pro- vide leadership on building improvements
and programming that continue to support the fast growing YMCA membership at the Athenaeum.
Save the Dateof April 12, 2008, so that you can be involved with a unique fund-raiser to benefit the Athenaeum Foundation and the Cabaret Theatre. We are looking for friends to host parties at their homes. Please contact the
Foundation office for more information.
Collaboration is the theme here at the Athenaeum, ranging from the volunteers who organize events, to cleaning the building, to providing tours, to providing leadership. All are integral components to our success and we must continue to excel and improve in each area. Thank you for your interest and loyalty and please con- tact me with any questions or suggestions you may have as we create a sustainable program here at the Athenaeum
Foundation. I look forward to seeing you in the building.
Stockamp is president of the Athenaeum Foundation.
WORKING TOGETHER
Here’s to another wonderful year
BYJERRYLAMKIN
T
he year 2007 was a year of change for the Foundation as Phil Watts retired, and we hired a new Foundation president. Many thanks to Phil for his 14 years of service and for the leadership he provided. And we are pleased to have Cassie Stockamp as the Foundation president, as she brings a new energy and enthusiasm to the job that has helped to create new synergies between the organizations within the building and on Mass Ave.One new synergy that we are pleased to welcome back is with the Young
Actors Theatre; they return as a building tenant after a several year hiatus, and we welcome the opportunity to share this wonderful building with a new generation of young people.
In 2007 we completed a Trustee Campaign which raised over $200,000 to go toward paying down the long-term debt. The continued leadership and sup- port the Trustees have given over the years has been a vital part of its success for which we are thankful. And now we
must expand our donor base to include a broader range of support in order to create a sustainable financial model for this his- toric building.
Next time you attend a production at the Cabaret Theatre, make sure you leave room for the desserts being served by the Rathskeller up in the theater. Collectively we are exploring new ways to make our guests have great experiences, and I hope you will come and join us in many of the events going on at the Athenaeum.
Lamkin is chairman of the Athenaeum Foundation Board of Trustees.

T
HE MAN WHO STEERED THE ATHEN- aeum through its toughest years was feted on Nov. 15, not long after he retired following 14 years at the helm of the Athenaeum Foundation.Phil Watts was honored in a program that included
testimonials by past chairmen Ted Englehart and Karl Zimmer, Rathskeller operator Dan McMichael and Bill Brooks, the editor of the Athenaeum Newsletter who doubled as emcee for the festivities. Brenda Williams, for many years a fixture at the American Cabaret Theatre, capped the evening by serenading Watts.
The program doubled as a tribute to the late Kurt
Vonnegut, a strong supporter of the Athenaeum who developed a strong friend- ship with Phil Watts through his several visits to the building which Vonnegut’s grandfather designed. Henry Ryder, best known for his portrayals of James
Whitcomb Riley, served as a Vonnegut sur- rogate by reading Vonnegut’s speech from the very first annual meeting of the 1894 Society.
McMichael praised Watts, who he said was his mentor, for “balancing the Athenaeum’s new growth while protecting its heritage.” McMichael remembered the many times Watts had to run interference between the building’s rapidly growing tenants, “and what a job he did.”
For Englehart, the thoughts went back to the Board of Trustees’ decision to bring Watts to the Athenaeum.
“We’ve been delighted with that decision ever since.
Phil did a great job.” Added Zimmer, “Thank you for what you have done for the Athenaeum. If it wasn’t for your work, we wouldn’t be here.”

Y
OUNG ACT-ors Theatre – an organization which teaches children about acting and then presents performances of their work – has returned to the Athenaeum.The not-for-profit organization called the Athenaeum home for almost 20 years, but in recent years had been operating out of the Old Centrum. That historic facility in the Old Northside announced earlier this year that it will close its doors.
“We see this move as ‘YAT coming home,” artistic director Justin Wade said, explaining that Young Actors Theatre will not only rehearse in the Athenaeum but also perform on the American Cabaret Theatre stage. “We look forward to partnering with both
the Athenaeum and the Cabaret, Wade said. “I cannot wait for YAT to be in the theater district in Indy.”
YAT, a 32-year-old organization, started teaching classes at the Athenaeum on Feb. 9.

#8. The Garden of Beer
T
HERE ARE MANY THINGSabout the Biergarten at the Rathskeller (401 E. Michigan St., 636-0396, www.rathskeller.com) that make it unusually intoxicating. There is the fading glow of a summer sun descending behind the tall brick
Athenaeum late on a weekday afternoon and the communion of strangers sharing the hard wood of the oversized picnic tables. And there is the beer, in 32-ounce cups, filled with draught Spaten
Optimator German dopplebock, which has a 7.2 percent alcohol content. Guess we better sit back down and order some food—something bready, like the Rathskeller’s famous soft pretzel, with a side of housemade cheese sauce. And/or the hot wurst plate — bratwurst, bock- wurst, kielbasa, and German wieners served with homemade sauerkraut, red cabbage, and spicy German mustards for dipping. You know what would go great with all that? More beer. And as darkness falls, and our afternoon excursion turns into a full-blown night out, we stuff our car keys deep into our pockets, program the cab company’s number into our phones, and plot out our excuses for showing up late for work tomorrow. — Tony Rehagen
A
FUNDRAISING EVENT UNLIKE anything seen in central Indiana.“Dinners, Desserts, and Divas”
will be a divine evening of delicious food, friends, and fun to benefit the American Cabaret Theatre and the Athenaeum Foundation. This fundraising event will not be your typical black tie gala com- plete with rubber chicken and yet another silent auction.
How Does It Work?
It’s as simple as having a party for friends! Individuals throughout the Indianapolis area sign up as a party host and invite friends over for an evening of dinner and dessert. Invited friends make a contribution in an amount set by the host to attend the private party. For a minimum donation of $100 guests can attend a pri-
vate party with friends and enjoy a pro- duction at the American Cabaret Theatre, all on the same day. For $50 individuals can attend the Cabaret production only and enjoy the evening with partygoers from around the city. All monies collected are tax deductible and will go to benefit the American Cabaret Theatre and the Athenaeum Foundation.
When Will It Happen?
On the evening of April 12, private par- ties will be held throughout the city.
These individual private parties will cul- minate that evening as partygoers arrive at the theatre around 9pm for dessert and performances from past, present and future DivasDivas of the stage.

Why Be a Host?
It’s simple and it benefits two wonderful organizations that have contributed to the cultural milieu of Indianapolis. It’s a great way to make a charitable contribution all while having fun.

Hosts have the option to have their gathering on either that Friday or Saturday evening.
How Can I Sign Up?
Go to www.actindy.org and complete the Host form or contact Martha Bonds at 317-536-9322 or via email to
[email protected] to sign up.
Where Does The Money Go?
With ticket sales accounting for less than 50% of the American Cabaret Theatre’s expenses to produce the high quality shows that hit the stage, and the Athenaeum Foundation’s mission to upkeep and improve the Historic Athenaeum Building, both organizations depend upon the generous support of businesses and individual donors to keep their doors open. Located in the heart of the Mass Ave Arts & Theater cultural district your involvement goes to support two organizations where arts and culture flourish. Your participation makes a difference.
