Worcester Center for the Performing Arts, a registered not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization, owns and operates The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts. All donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.

the Future The theatre’s future success depends on continuing to deliver a world-class experience; to maintain the highest level of quality in every aspect of the theatergoing experience. Undeniably, the high caliber of the experience we deliver is inextricably linked to the beauty and perfection of the historic theatre itself. We must do better than simple “upkeep” of the theatre. We must preserve and care for it like the asset that it is. In addition, the very definition of a world-class venue will evolve, and we must evolve with it, embracing changing technologies and trends. We offer our heartfelt thanks to the many foundations, businesses and individuals that participated in The Hanover Theatre’s recently concluded Securing the Future Capital Campaign. More than $3.6 million was raised to support the ongoing preservation and maintenance of our historic facility. While we are grateful to all of our contributors, we are only able to list donors beginning at the $500 level.
