You are not only supporting the arts; you are also contributing to a major component of the economic engine of downtown Salem, Oregon!
The Elsinore Theatre thanks you for your support! Your generous donations have recently allowed us to completely restore the historic exterior of our 100-year-old building and bring back the blade sign, lighting up High St. and downtown Salem for the first time since 1962!
We are launching a modest $1.8 million fundraising campaign to replace our original theater seats with modern seating to enhance your comfort. This will not only enhance comfort but also the experience for all and indirectly continue to help fund our highly competitive programming efforts, bringing top talent to Salem and boosting our overall image as a city.
Leave your mark on the Elsinore Theatre for generations to come. Sponsor a seat or seats on the main floor or mezzanine. Personalize it with an engraved plaque to recognize your family, honor a loved one, celebrate a milestone, or preserve a cherished memory. Whether you choose one seat or several, your sponsorship becomes part of the theater's story through a tiered giving program.
