You can benefit from
advertising with The Emerson Center. Beyond supporting a valuable community
resource, ads appearing in our Celebrated Speakers' Series program and on
this website regularly reach a large audience - people who are typically
highly-informed citizens and influential opinion leaders.
To discuss your advertising opportunities, contact our Emerson Center's
volunteer ad sales representatives by sending an email to
or calling our Box Office at 772.778.5249.

Advertisers who want to
access our up-scale audiences with their advertising messages will find two
ways of promoting themselves.
Program Ads (Print)
Attendees at all Celebrated Speakers Series events receive program
booklets which contain valuable information about
this series, other events,
and the many individuals and companies who support our efforts. We encourage
our guests to take their programs home and support the many advertisers who
support us.
You can place an ad message in The Emerson Center’s program as well. Our
Emerson Center ad reps will sit down with you, explain the benefits of
advertising with The Emerson Center, and help you develop the ideal ad
messages to maximize your ads’ impact.
Here are the current rates and mechanical specifications for our program ads.

* All ads have a “live area” that is 4½” wide.
Half and Quarter Page ads are only available in a horizontal format.
Mechanical art for full page and cover ads should be sized at least 5¾” x
8¾”, allowing a minimum of 1/8” around the perimeter of the artwork for
trimming. Mechanical art should show crop marks to facilitate positioning.
Our design team can supply the art needed for your ad. Ask your Emerson Center
volunteer ad representative for
details.
Website Ads
Our website (which includes online ticketing for all our events) is a
popular Internet destination for patrons, subscribers, and others throughout
the community. Advertisers in our printed program have the first opportunity
to acquire website ads
Here’s a description of our web advertising program, including an
explanation of the unique rotational system we’ve developed to assure your
ads enjoy maximum exposure.

Ads are displayed using a web-based script which displays randomly-selected
ads each time a new page is accessed or reloaded.
Each ad appears once every ten times a page is loaded (or more
frequently if all ad slots are unsold).** All
web ads are hyperlinked to your website.
Only 20 website ad opportunities are available each season.
Ten ads are available in Position 1 (top of ad column) and ten are
available in Position 4 (bottom). Ads run for a minimum of one year
from their contract date.

There are 5 sizes of ads we offer. Only 2 ads of each size
are offered in each position. In other words, two 250x250 ads are
available in Position 1 and two more are offered in Position 4.
Ad costs are based on the image size of ads and the position in the ad column (see table below). Ads are sold
on a first-come-first-served basis. All ads offered by our ad
representatives are subject to prior sale.

**The web advertising on TheEmersonCenter.org is strictly ROS (run of
site). Though our ad delivery script is structured to randomly deliver ad
content, we make no representations about the number of times your ad will
appear or the number of “click-throughs” your website will receive. We do
not monitor the frequency of your ad(s) appearing.
Notice: Due to the random nature of our ad delivery script, an advertiser
purchasing an ad in Position 1 and a separate ad in Position 4 could
possibly have both ads appearing simultaneously.

Need help developing your ad? We are available to assist you. Ask your Emerson
Center volunteer ad representative for details. Contact us by calling our Box Office at 772.778.5249.

Our new elevator helps others
Our new elevator helps others.

You can help with our new elevator.
During our off-season, we've installed a new elevator. We've needed one for
years. You see, balcony seating offers a unique, birds-eye view and our new elevator makes it easy for
everyone to
access these seats.
We are seeking donors to help underwrite the cost of this elevator. We will
provide permanent recognitions for supporters who make deductible donations of
$1,000 or more.
Won’t you join us? Inquire at our box office or call us at 772-778-5249.
