The Old Globe’s Announces $75 Million Campaign We Still Need Your Annual Fund Support!

“Securing a San Diego Landmark,” the Globe’s five-year fundraising campaign, was launched in March to raise $75 million before the Theatre’s 75th Anniversary in 2010. With lead gifts from Donald and Darlene Shiley and Conrad Prebys, this Campaign has raised more than $45 million to date. These campaign gifts are designated for specific purposes, such as facilities construction or endowment, and do not support the Globe’s annual artistic and education programs. For this reason, the Globe must continue to raise $7 million each year in annual contributions – from ticket buyers and subscribers like you – to support an operating budget of $17 million.

Your annual contribution plays a critical role in helping fund artistic and education programs, and we encourage you to support the Globe with a new or increased annual gift today.

When you contribute, you receive special benefits, including backstage tours, free lectures by Globe artists and access to the Lipinsky Family Suite. To learn more or to contribute, contact Courtney Quinn at (619) 231-1941 x2311 or [email protected].
