Tuesday Open House
Tuesday Open House
Every Tuesday, 7:00p-8:00p
The Palm Springs Plaza Theatre Foundation will hold free Open House events at the theatre to display plans and renderings of the renovations to the historic building. The informal Open House events will take place every Tuesday from 7 – 8 pm March 21 through June 6 at the Theatre, located at 128 S. Palm Canyon Drive in Palm Springs. Foundation board members and other volunteers will greet attendees and answer questions about the project. The purpose of these free weekly events is to provide attendees with an opportunity to see firsthand the restoration plans for the iconic building as it enters its Next Act. Reservations are not necessary and the events are free and open to the public.
During the events, attendees will get a sneak peek at the exciting restoration plans created by Architectural Resources Group (ARG), the firm selected by the Foundation and the City of Palm Springs. Architectural Resources Group has completed a number of theater and other historic projects of similar scope including New Mission Theater in San Francisco and The Alameda Theater and has an Architectural Conservator on board who will be instrumental in the restoration of the Plaza Theatre.
These open house events will provide an opportunity for anyone, especially those who have never had the chance to be inside the theatre before, to find out more about what it will take to bring this landmark back to its former glory. As the theatre enters its final phase of fundraising, it is important for all community members to see what exciting plans are in store. The valley needs venues like the Plaza Theatre that are accessible and affordable for everyone.
When restored, the Plaza Theatre will be an affordable community venue showcasing diverse programming for all people, local youth organizations, promoting multicultural programming in film, music, live theater, education, comedy, and entertainment for all. It will also support and serve nonprofit organizations like the Palm Springs International Film Festival, ONE-PS, Modernism Week, and many others.
