Be a PARK THEATRE Groundbreaker!

Tax deductible
When was the last time a community-based theatre was built in the Monadnock Region?
-- Over 80 years ago.

But that is about to change this year...



A little town in southern New Hampshire is on the doorstep of the construction of a new performing arts center. Help us bring entertainment, education and economic prosperity to the communities surrounding Jaffrey, New Hampshire. We’ve raised and secured $4.8 million and just need $271,000 (less than 6% of what's been raised to date!) to begin construction in a few months.   www.theparktheatre.org

This is the story of The Park Theatre - it's a fairytale come true. 

Help us realize this dream for our towns and our region.

The Park Theatre began in 1922 as the dream of Romulo Vanni, an Italian immigrant who came to New Hampshire at the age of 14, and sought to better his business and his community with the bold idea of a movie theatre and vaudeville house in the barn behind his house right in the heart of downtown. It was so popular he expanded it into a 720—seat movie and performance theater. For 54 years, The Park Theatre was the Vibrant center of the cultural, entertainment and community life of the town of Jaffrey before it finally went “dark” in 1976 and almost disappeared — for 40 years.

Rediscovered, The Park Theatre has become the focus of a community revitalization to inspire our young people and boost the economy of the region. Since 2008, trustees and hundreds of volunteers have maintained the properties, developed, designed and engineered the new building, presented a decade of art and entertainment.

We are within inches of the goal:

Last Call – Come on in!
Please consider contributing  all or some of the last required funds to this $97,000 GoFundMe Campaign.

Contributing to this vision means inspiration for our young people, enjoyable nights out for families who might otherwise not have any, afternoons and evenings of fellowship and fun - concerts and opera and plays and dance and films — in place of empty streets, shuttered businesses and vacant parking lots. It is a powerful gift. 

Help us make this dream come true. Thank you!
