To date the Historic Homestake Opera House Society has raised, and invested, nearly $2.5 million in the restoration of this magnificent structure. These dollars were raised through contributions from private individuals, foundations, and state as well as federal grants.

Through a grant from Save America's Treasures, We were able to address life safety issues, Americans with Disability (ADA) issues, provide an elevator for access off Julius St. where handicap and City parking is available as well as new modern (and handicap accessible) rest rooms.

Continued public support is needed in order for the restoration of this historic property to continue. Won't you become involved in our restoration efforts by joining the Historic Homestake Opera House Society? Continue to visit our web page and find out what ways you can become involved.
