Thank you for your interest! While this campaign has reached its conclusion, the Center for Monster Studies (monsterstudies.ucsc.edu) is always looking to fund our future endeavors — from a proposed monster film festival and our ongoing podcast to next year's Festival of Monsters. We welcome inquiries at ucscmonsters@gmail.com.
Back it because you believe in monsters! Every dollar helps us make the 2023 Festival of Monsters accessible to all and keeps the Center for Monster Studies going.
Every donation between $20 and $99 receives a vinyl sticker of Professor Frankenstein, reading in an armchair. This charming image was designed by a local Santa Cruz artist for the Center's Scholarween social media initiative.
Every donation between $100 and $499 receives a mug featuring the poster from the 2022 Festival of Monsters. Original artwork by UCSC graduate Evie Chang strikes terror for your morning brew.
Every donation between $500 and $999 receives a t-shirt featuring UCSC graduate Evie Chang's monstrous design for the 2022 Festival of Monsters. Please send your preferred size to ucscmonsters@gmail.com.
Every donation of $1000 or more will receive our eternal, unearthly thanks plus an invitation to the opening VIP reception for the 2023 Festival (Oct. 13 at the Red Room) and a signed copy of Center Director Michael Chemers' book The Monster in Theatre History.
