AUCTION FAQ

Why make a donation to the Paramount & Stateside Theatres?

Your donation helps protect and celebrate these iconic venues along with the support of community members, volunteers, staff and other supporters. When you donate, you are helping:

  • Advance the diverse programming of more than 600 shows, events and movies throughout both our venues. You ensure there is truly something for all audiences at these theatres.
  • Support historic preservation efforts, allowing the Paramount (107-years-young) and Stateside (88-years-young) to operate at historic venues in their original footprints. From the iconic neon sign of the State Theatre to the hand-painted Saint Cecilia adorning the top of the Paramount auditorium, you are protecting these treasures for the seventh generation of Austinites.
  • Through in-school programs to student matinee field trips to bring in young audiences, your donation helps create arts-rich learning programs for students K-12 all across Central Texas. Many of these programs are offered at reduced cost or completely for free because of donations like yours and the help of volunteers and staff. Each year, even during the pandemic, we’re serving over 35,000 students and educators.
