We need you.

Make a Donation

The Mariemont Theatre reopening is no longer an idea - it’s underway. Our community has already raised more than $600,000 toward Phase 1 reopening efforts, but we still need support to fully reopen the cinema responsibly, sustainably, and with the care this historic space deserves.

  • Contribute a leadership gift to help close the gap on critical reopening infrastructure and operational readiness.

  • Make a one-time donation online or through your donor-advised fund to directly support Phase 1 reopening efforts.

  • Join Friends of the Mariemont Theatre and become part of the long-term stewardship of this nearly century-old community gathering place.

Help keep us on pace to reopening the theatre. Please tell your friends!

We have ordered the first half of our projection and sound equipment. We are now fundraising the remaining balance needed for equipment installation, accessibility improvements, staffing, and overall operational readiness to responsibly reopen the Mariemont Theatre.
