Capitol Theatre

Capitol Theatre Historic Theatre located at 159 S Main Street Chambersburg PA, 17201 Your gift in any amount will have an impact.

Mission: "To create opportunities for the greater community to engage in and experience all facets of the arts." The Capitol Theatre has touched the lives of almost everyone who has resided in the Franklin County area. For many in the community, the Capitol is the “go-to” place for quality arts and entertainment experiences. For others, it provides a creative outlet for performing on stage in plays, ballets, and concerts or working behind the scenes. Many memories have been made over the years watching movies on the big screen, attending live shows, and listening to the mighty Moller Theatre Pipe Organ, which sounds as vibrant today as it did over 90 years ago. You can be a part of preserving the Capitol for the children of today and future generations so they too can “grow up” with equally fond memories at the Capitol. Capitol Theatre Center Foundation operates independently as a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization and is governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees. Like most non-profit theatres throughout the country, Capitol Theatre Center experiences a financial gap between what it costs to operate the cultural arts center and the amount of money generated through ticket sales, facility rentals, and concessions. We are able to close the financial gap, in large part through grants; endowment interest income; marketing partnerships; and donations from individuals and businesses as part of the annual Capitol Forever Campaign. There are many ways an individual, family, or corporation can contribute to the Capitol Theatre Center Foundation. All gifts are greatly appreciated and may be tax-deductible depending upon the type of gift and your own personal tax situation.

We're honored for all of you who joined us for the 100th Anniversary Ribbon Cutting last Thursday!! 😍🎀✂ The event turned out spectacular! 🤩

There's so many individuals to thank, but we'll start with our two sponsors who made the event possible: The Floor Trader Outlet of Chambersburg and Menno Haven! Without their support, this event wouldn't have been possible, so thank you! Make sure you check them out and see what all they offer. ❤

Thank yous are in order for our speakers, including our Board Co-Chair, Kristian Frank, Alan Lane from Habitat for Humanity of Franklin County PA, Steve Christian from the Greater Chambersburg Chamber of Commerce, Senator Doug Mastriano, Greg from Floor Trader Outlet, Menno Haven's CEO Tiffany Rife, Paul Cullinane, Rebecca Countess (Representative for U.S. Senator John Fetterman), and Representative Rob Kauffman!

We would also like to thank these local arts organizations for joining us: Chambersburg Ballet (who also put on a performance and set up a historic display), Chambersburg Community Theatre, Totem Pole Playhouse, Cumberland Valley School of Music, AGO-Cumberland Valley, and The Foundry Art Market with Mountain Valley painters! 😍🎨🎭🩰🎷

A huge thank you to Jodi Frank (Kristian's wife) for all the food, and to Hayley Amour for providing tunes as guests dined in our Wood Center! Also, another huge thank you to our Board Co-Chair, Kristian Frank, for organizing this whole event! He was the key to getting everyone together.

We hope you enjoyed the evening, and if you have any of your own pictures, feel free to share them in the comments below! 😊 It was definitely an event to remember!
