Giving Opportunities

Your support brings art to life!

As a non-profit theatre company, La Jolla Playhouse relies on support from individuals, corporations, foundations, and the government to produce and present the WOW Festival.

We want to WOW you with a weekend filled with exciting performances, personalized hospitality, and intimate access to the creative process. We invite you to become a sponsor.
