Inspired by its rich history, the Palm Springs Plaza Theatre serves as a home for creativity and connection, providing a welcoming space for world-class performances that enrich the cultural fabric of our desert community. The Foundation will raise funds and direct the restoration effort of this one-of-a-kind community facility. The state-of-the-art Plaza Theatre will once again become a major economic driver for the City by bringing hundreds of visitors and locals per week to the downtown to see quality entertainment. Our goal is to prepare this one-of-a-kind community facility for its "Next Act" by restoring most systems, installing new seats, sound, and lighting, adapting the structure to meet current ADA requirements, and providing the theatre with modern facilities needed to provide Palm Springs and the Valley with a venue accessible and affordable for everyone. The theater will once again become a major economic driver for the City, generating millions in economic activity by bringing hundreds of visitors and locals per week to the downtown to see quality entertainment. When restored, the Plaza Theatre will be the only place available for the entire community to come together and utilize it as an affordable community venue showcasing diverse programming for all people, local youth organizations, promoting multicultural programming in film, music, live theater, education, comedy, and entertainment for all. It will also support and serve nonprofit organizations like the Palm Springs International Film Festival, ONE-PS, the Jessie O. James Desert Highland Unity Center, LGBTQ+ organizations, Arts groups, modernism-related events, our senior population, and others.
