# Tips, Tools & Resources for Your Theatre
A growing collection of small, practical tips for running your theatre with CrowdWork — handy techniques that don't belong to any one feature but make everyday tasks easier.

## Creating a QR Code
A QR code turns any web link into something a patron can reach by pointing their phone camera at it. They're perfect for bridging the physical and digital worlds — print one on a lobby sign, a poster, a table card, or a show program, and patrons can jump straight to the page with a single scan.
A few CrowdWork pages worth turning into a QR code:
* Your **Donations page** — `https://crowdwork.com/v/[your-subdomain]/donations` — on signs around your venue with a prompt like *"Support our work."*
* Your **Shows page** — so audiences can grab tickets to your next production on their way out.
* A **specific show or class** — on a poster or flyer for that event.

A QR code never expires on its own — it simply encodes a URL. As long as the link still works, the code keeps working, so you can print it once and reuse it for years.
{% endhint %}
### Option 1: Straight From Your Browser
Most Chromium-based browsers — **Chrome**, **Brave**, **Microsoft Edge**, and others — can generate a QR code for whatever page you're viewing, with no extra tools required.
1. Open the page you want to share (for example, your Donations page).
2. Click the **Share** icon in the address bar — or right-click anywhere on the page.
3. Choose **Create QR Code** from the menu.
4. Download or screenshot the QR code that appears, then drop it into your sign, flyer, or program.

### Option 2: Free QR Code Generators
If your browser doesn't offer a built-in option — or you want more control over the size, colors, or logo on your code — these free web tools all do the job:
* [**QRCode Monkey**](https://www.qrcode-monkey.com/) — free, no account required, with color and logo customization.
* [**Adobe Express QR Code Generator**](https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/qr-code-generator) — free, with styling options if you already use Adobe Express.
* [**QR Tiger**](https://www.qrcode-tiger.com/) — free static QR codes, plus paid options for trackable (dynamic) codes.
Paste in the URL you want to share, generate the code, and download it as an image to use in your print materials.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Always test before you print.** Scan your finished QR code with a phone to confirm it opens the right page — then print it large enough to scan comfortably from a few feet away.
{% endhint %}
