Shaping The Future Of The Arts

Marquee Circle stands in partnership with the Board of Directors of Marquee Arts to sustain our wide-ranging programs and strategic growth with significant unrestricted support.

Funds ensure ongoing restoration and maintenance for both the historic Michigan Theater and renovated “art deco” State Theatre. Marquee Circle donors foster a community of movie and theater-goers dedicated to safeguarding these two cultural and architectural treasures while offering timeless, relevant and modern experiences.

Whether your passion lies in movies, film festivals, dynamic live performances, or music, membership in Marquee Circle offers an array of benefits for you, your family and your friends year-round, including special access to our theaters and other venues through private events and excursions.
