Sponsorship Spotlight

Sponsorship Spotlight shines a light on our beloved Sponsors. Our first one is with Phoebe and Andy Martin, who have a rich history with The Englert that predates our organization. Please read about it in our Stages magazine or below!

Sponsorship Spotlight

Martin Construction + Phoebe Martin Realtor

Andy and Phoebe's love affair with The Englert began long before they became Sponsors. They got married on our stage in 2006 and used to watch movies here, with their friends filling up their popcorn and selling them tickets.

Why they do what they do:

Phoebe: Being a realtor goes beyond buying and selling houses. It's about creating community and ensuring we support each other. I focus on making clients aware of Iowa City's offerings, helping them find services like landscaping, and guiding their philanthropic interests. My role is to stay informed about the community and provide valuable connections, ultimately building relationships and enhancing lifestyles.

Andy:Our services compliment each other. We don't buy and flip houses; our focus is on removals, historic renovations and finding living solutions. Whether it's upgrading to a better kitchen, helping someone stay in their home as they age, or making a house more suitable for raising a family, the service aspect is the most rewarding part of the job.

All time favorite Englert moment:

My all time favorite Nutcracker moment was when Isaac was a baby, about eight months old. We were in the balcony watching the show, and when the gunshot went off, we both woke up-turns out we had both fallen asleep.
