Karamu Rising Campaign

Support Our Capital Campaign


We are now in our third phase of renovations, and through widespread community support, we've already raised 80 percent of our $10.5 million capital campaign of $10.5 million. This final phase of development is dependent on the support of individual, foundation, and corporate donors to reach our final $2.0 million in our capital campaign.

Since 2017, we've completely renovated the historic Jelliffe Theatre, art gallery, gift shop, theatre lounge, and box office and main lobby. This third phase of capital improvements will include the construction of a full-service bistro and patio, and outdoor arena theatre, as well as major renovations to the Arena Theatre, backstage and green rooms, and exterior facade.
