Banner Advertising

New Jersey Stage offers four banner ad sizes. Our favorite sizes are 600 x 776 (which looks like a show poster) and 970 x 250 (which looks like a bumper sticker). Those two are seen in key areas of every article.

We also have 300 x 250 (a square) and 300 x 600 (a rectangle) that appear in key places across the website and further down on every page.

Our belief is that advertising is based on repetition and a message works best when repeated across different sizes. It increases the chance the message will reach the user.

You can purchase a single banner ad (we’d recommend 600 x 776 or 970 x 250) in one of our best ad locations for $50, two ads in our best ad locations for $75, or get the complete set of four sizes for $100, which provides maximum exposure throughout the website.

If you are promoting a single event, the ad can run for up to 3 months in advance for the price of a single ad buy. Or you can choose to have a month’s worth of promotion in which case you can change your ad within the 30 days time-frame to promote multiple events.

We will always work with artists and art organizations to give a good deal on pre-paid orders for multiple months. There are discounts for 3, 6, and 12 month pre-paid orders. We cannot give further discounts to non-profits as most of our advertisers fall under that designation.

The legendary Sun Ra Arkestra returns with exuberant cosmic jazz — a stirring blend of big‑band swing, free jazz, bebop, spiritual jazz and Afrofuturist spectacle. Formed in Chicago in the mid‑1950s as the vehicle for the visionary composer Sun Ra, the Arkestra has spanned seven decades, touring the globe and inspiring generations with its bold, otherworldly sound.



A pioneer of early synthesizer use and the free‑jazz movement of the 1960s, Sun Ra combined musical innovation with a spiritual mission—using positive vibrations and music to uplift the universe. The Arkestra’s theatrical live shows fuse space‑age improvisation, singing, dancing, chanting and Afro‑pageantry, and helped define Afrofuturism in music and performance.

From his childhood in St. Louis to the global blues-rock circuit, Mike Zito has always kept it real. He began playing guitar at age five and by his late teens was a fixture on the St. Louis music scene. For Zito, honesty, authenticity, and integrity aren’t just part of the brand, they’re the foundation. “I have nothing to hide; it seems my honesty is what people relate to most,” he once told Vintage Guitar.
