GIVING TUESDAY is just two weeks away!

11/19/2025

Let’s make something extraordinary happen.

This year, your gift to the Michigan & State Theaters goes twice as far thanks to a generous $35,000 match challenge supporting our Screening Room Stage Project.

This project is a true game-changer. We’re transforming the Screening Room into a vibrant, flexible venue for intimate concerts, filmmaker panels, author talks, community storytelling, and emerging artists; right in the heart of downtown Ann Arbor.

Our goal is $50,000, with a $70,000 stretch goal to upgrade our outdated audio amplification system, so guests with hearing impairments can fully enjoy every performance.

Our Board of Directors and Towsley Society members will match every gift, dollar-for-dollar, up to $35,000.

Help us build a stage that brings more voices, more art, and more community to life.

Make your early Giving Tuesday gift and double your impact.

Thank you for supporting your theaters!
