Over seven decades, 27 different locations, more than 1,400 productions, SLO REP is one of the nation’s longest running nonprofit theatres. It’s time to build a new home for San Luis Obispo’s theatre. It’s time for A NEW STAGE.
SLO REP’s new state-of-the-art venue for live performances in downtown SLO will serve as the active anchor and the entryway to the Cultural Arts District.
Our two new theatres — a 215-seat Mainstage Theatre and 100-seat Black Box — will cement downtown’s historic role as the beating heart of San Luis Obispo’s rich culture and economy.
As a matter of sheer scale, this is the largest arts project since the Performing Arts Center on the Cal Poly campus was built more than 30 years ago.
With your help, we will break ground in early 2026.
To inspire you to give – whether for the first time, a second or even a third time – the Harold J. Miossi Charitable Trust will match your contribution dollar for dollar up to $500,000 made between now and June 30. The Miossi Trust offers this challenge because it believes in SLO REP’s ability to contribute significantly to the Central Coast’s cultural and economic vitality. (For more about this generous challenge grant, please click HERE.)
Please join us to meet the Miossi Challenge and play a part in making this vision a reality.
Donations can be made over time with pledges of up to three years. Consider making an IRA qualified charitable distribution or transferring appreciated stock/securities. For more information, including recognition opportunities, please contact:
