Bespoke Naming Opportunities

The Karen L. Jurjevich Innovation Centre and Studio Theatre (iCAST) offers many unique and creative naming opportunities. From hands-on learning environments to gateways and common spaces, your generosity can be recognized in a meaningful way, inspiring future generations of students. 

For those seeking a truly personalized legacy, our bespoke naming opportunities start at $100,000, which can be pledged over time: up to five years. These offer an opportunity to name signature spaces within iCAST. 

Let’s create something impactful together. 

Cross-section of a modern building labeled with areas: tension grid, theatre, metal shop, woodshop, robotics, pitchspace, media studio, noodle garage & edition space, second pitchspace, and steam studio.

Enterprise Hub: Name One of Our Benches

Located on the second floor in the heart of our Centre for Entrepreneurship, this secondary Pitch Space will fast become a popular gathering space for our students.

Several people sit and talk on tiered wooden seating in a modern, open indoor space with a whiteboard, tables, and stools. The atmosphere is casual and collaborative.

Our Noodle students will practise their pitches in this purpose-built space and it will also be a natural place to host expert guest speakers on a multitude of business subjects, i.e. finance, marketing, brainstorming, business planning and much more.

A metal plaque on a wooden background reads: “John and Jane Smith, Elizabeth SMITH’32, Alexia SMITH’30.” Dimensions are marked as 1.5 in x 5 in (plaque) and 24 in (wood length).

Brushed aluminum plaque inset and flush to the wood, in the upper-left corner of the front of the bench.

Control Booth

This is the very nerve centre of a production, where the technical crew, including lighting and sound operators, monitor and control the cues of a show during a performance.

A group of four dancers performs on a stage with blue lighting, while a large audience watches from tiered seating; an arrow points to people observing from a windowed booth above the crowd.

The booth allows students to adjust lights, sound effects and other technical elements while maintaining a clear view of the stage without being seen by the audience.

A brushed metal plaque reads: “Smith Family Control Booth in honour of Alexia SMITH ’30” with some words in bold.

Brushed aluminum plaque will be placed outside the Control Booth, located on the second floor of iCAST.

STEAM Studio

Our STEAM Studio is a dedicated space for programming focused on hands-on learning experiences that combine Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics.

A group of female students in green uniforms work on laptops and projects in a modern classroom. Large glowing letters spelling "STEM" are on a table, and more students and a teacher are visible in the background.

Students will be offered limitless opportunities to explore and develop their creativity and problem-solving skills. The third floor of iCAST connects to the Senior School (10 Elm Avenue) at the art-studios level, further bringing the “A” in STEAM to life.

A person wearing a light coat and hat stands outside a glass-walled room labeled "Smith Family STEAM Studio," looking inside at tables, blue chairs, and large windows with a view.

Pin lettering will be placed prominently outside the entrance of the STEAM Studio, allowing families to leave a meaningful legacy.

Hall of Fame

This highly visible naming opportunity will sit in the hallway that serves as the main entrance to the theatre.

Five people walk down a bright, minimalistic hallway with white walls. The words "Donor Name Hall of Fame" are displayed on the left wall. The group is moving toward a door at the far end of the corridor.

Posters, photos and production playbills will inspire, inform and speak to the success of Branksome’s theatre, dance and music program, telling the story of our students’ accomplishments while inspiring all who enter for a performance.

Studio Theatre

Our Studio Theatre will be part of a cross-disciplinary ecosystem at the intersection of STEM and state-of-the-art creative explorations. Unparalleled opportunities include theatrical, dance and musical performances, film screenings and multimedia productions. Students school-wide will experience every aspect of stagecraft, from set and lighting design to sound production. 

Several people walk through a hallway toward the entrance of the Smith Family Studio Theatre. One man in a suit is approaching double doors, and others are visible inside the well-lit space.

In addition to prominently displaying the theatre’s name at the entrance, this space will provide a unique opportunity to amplify recognition across a variety of mediums.

Four dancers perform on a circular, smoke-filled stage with glowing vertical lights, while a seated audience watches in a dimly lit modern theater.

The theatre’s name will appear on the following: website, performance programs, marketing materials for performances and events (print and electronically) and tickets for performances and events.

Land Acknowledgement
We wish to acknowledge this land on which Branksome operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the Wendat, the Seneca and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and go to school on this land.*


*The Land Acknowledgement may evolve as we honour our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation in partnership with Indigenous communities.
