About Us
The Port Theatre Society is a charitable not-for-profit organization and, together with the City of Nanaimo, co-manages the Port Theatre, a community performing arts centre located on the traditional territory of the Snuneymuxw First Nation, in the heart of Nanaimo on Central Vancouver Island.
The theatre is a rental venue and important gathering place which serves as a home for many professional arts organizations, promoters, and community groups. Situated on Canada’s western edge, the theatre is a strategically important stop on the touring circuit where many national tours either begin or end their journey.
Your Gift
As a registered charity, donations are a critical part of what makes everything we do possible. Our endowment fund exists to steward your gift in perpetuity, supporting our organization’s needs beyond our annual fund and creating a source of reliable income that can act as a security blanket through both successful and uncertain times.
Your gift will support emerging artists through our Discovery Series, the incredible artistic talent of every Spotlight performance, outreach programs that bring live performance to people from across the mid-island region, and the general operations of the theatre you know and love.
