135 for 135

The Historic Elitch Theatre invites you to be part of something truly extraordinary. As we celebrate our 135th anniversary, we are launching 135 for 135 — a campaign to unite 135 passionate supporters, each contributing $135, to help preserve and sustain one of Denver’s most beloved cultural landmarks.

Our milestone doesn’t stand alone: this year marks Colorado’s 150th year of statehood and the 250th anniversary of the United States of America, making this a once-in-a-generation convergence of history worth honoring.

As our nation and state pause to reflect on their own legacies, we ask you to invest in ours.

Your gift will help ensure that the stories and performances within these historic walls continue for generations to come — because great theatre, like great nations, endure when people believe in it enough to fight for it.

Donor Benefits: Join this campaign and you’ll get the joy of supporting Denver’s historic theatre!  PLUS…

  • Theatre Plaque: Your name will be enshrined on a plaque at the theatre to celebrate your support. (sample)
  • Donor Reception: You’ll be invited to attend a reception at the end of the summer.
