Fund-a-Need

Please join us in our year-end fundraising. Stage One urgently requires a new projection screen after our current one was damaged beyond repair. The replacement cost is $17,500, and it's essential to meet the growing demand for video projections in performances. A new screen will enhance the viewing experience for all our patrons, ensuring the Harris Center remains a premier destination for world-class arts.

Please consider supporting this critical need. Your donation – whether large or small – can directly fund the screen replacement and help keep the arts accessible for our community. Every gift is tax-deductible and makes a difference.
