DONOR SUPPORT DRIVES SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC & SOCIAL IMPACT TO DOWNTOWN PALM SPRINGS
Every dollar raised by the Foundation drives and supports key initiatives like these:

SUPPORTS COMMUNITY & YOUTH EDUCATION
We are committed to providing a space for educational experiences that cater to the diverse needs of our community, including local youth organizations, schools, and special events such as the PS International Film Festival & Modernism Week.

OFFERS ACCESSIBLE PROGRAMMING
A percentage of tickets per event will be offered at a lower rate, accessible to those who can't afford standard prices. We want all members of our community to have access to entertainment and education at the theatre.

SHOWCASES PREMIERE, DIVERSE ENTERTAINMENT
We are dedicated to high-quality performances across various genres. Live shows, films, music, multicultural programming and educational events will engage a diverse audience, positioning us as a premier cultural destination.

ENABLES THEATRE UPKEEP, UPGRADES & OPERATIONS
Operating a best-in-class venue requires a best-in-class team to deliver an exceptional theater experience. Everything from operations, technology, maintenance, security, and preservation is critical to keeping the Plaza Theatre a community icon for years to come.

FUELS OUR LOCAL ECONOMY
The theatre will draw hundreds of visitors and locals to downtown for every event, thereby driving a new wave of customers to local shops, restaurants, and hotels, becoming a significant driver of the Palm Springs economy.

A JOURNEY DRIVEN BY PASSION & PURPOSE
After years of sitting vacant, our Foundation was started by a small group of locals that believe in the power of performing arts and cultivating a hub for creativity and community.
