Since 1922, the Weston Community Association has owned The Weston Playhouse, rebuilding it after the fire in 1962 and repairing it after floods in 1973, 2011 and 2023.
Our 3-year budget to complete our new performing arts center:
$400,000 to obtain a Certificate of Occupancy for the Playhouse and another $600,000 for it to be flood resilient
$900,000 to replace Playhouse dressing rooms, sound and lighting systems and operate it as a year-round performing arts center
$900,000 to replenish our Endowment Fund and $200,000 for operations and staffing
Raising $1,000,000 in 2027 and 2028 will replenish our depleted Endowment Fund and enable us to operate the Performing Arts Center at the Playhouse all year round
