It creates a family out of the actors and crew members, and it brings immeasurable joy to audience members who, for 2-2.5 hours have engaged in the willing suspension of disbelief so that they can share in the story.” —Community Quote

Annual Fund
As a nonprofit theatre and performing arts education-focused organization, Spokane Civic Theatre relies on the dedication and generosity of our growing community to underwrite critical program services, namely education expenses and production costs.
Last season, 61% of Spokane Civic Theatre's $1.2M budget was spent on personnel (including full-time staff, hourly employees and 132 independent contractors (directors, musicians, designers, backstage crew, teaching artists, and more)). Production and education expenses including costumes, set supplies, materials, and licensing fees were the next largest category of expenses, totaling 24% of the budget.
For decades, Civic has been a creative haven for some and a source of community and entertainment for others. To date, Civic has mounted more than 800 productions; has represented the Lilac City at local, national and international festivals and has fostered throngs of artists, entertainment professionals and educators.
