Thank You for Supporting the Hippodrome!
We are so grateful for all the support we’ve received from patrons, donors, sponsors, and the community without which we could not have survived the past years. We found our way back to LIVE Theatre, in person cinema, gallery exhibits and educational experiences after COVID thanks to your support.
Now, the state funding cut for Arts and Culture all over Florida has put our future at risk! Your donation to the Hippodrome Theatre is now more meaningful than ever.
