INTRODUCING: TVCT’s NEW HOME!
Coming in the spring of 2024, TVCT’s new home at the Overland Park Shopping Center will feature two flexible, multi-purpose spaces for performances, classes, camps, workshops and rehearsals, as well as an open lobby area and operations areas. Located just off the Overland and Cole I84 exits, the new location is easily accessible in the center of the Valley and is adjacent to many desirable and convenient amenities.
We have successfully raised $70,000 in cash donations and matched that number with in-kind contributions. We are actively engaged in a robust fundraising campaign with a goal to raise an additional $150,000 by June, 2024. We could use your help.
Donating to the building campaign isn’t just about TVCT; it’s an investment in the future of our community. This endeavor holds the power to create a profound impact that extends far beyond the confines of a physical structure. Here are compelling reasons why you may want to consider contributing to this worthy cause:
- By supporting this campaign, you are fostering an atmosphere where children can explore their potential, gain confidence in their abilities, and develop skills that will resonate throughout their lives.
- The new space will be a shared with other arts-based organizations. This sense of unity and shared experience will help build stronger connections among diverse individuals, contributing to the social fabric of the region.
- By contributing to this campaign, you are advocating for the enrichment of cultural experiences for generations to come, ensuring that the magic of live performances continues to captivate and inspire audiences.
Donating to the building campaign is not just about constructing a physical space; it’s about building dreams, nurturing talents, fostering community, and enhancing education. Your contribution will ripple through time, touching the lives of children, families, audiences, and leaving an enduring legacy of creativity, empathy, and cultural enrichment.

Since 2012, thousands of Treasure Valley area youth have either directly participated in or seen a TVCT program or production. We know performing arts experiences offer youth a safe space within which to take risks, explore new ideas, develop their sense of self, express themselves, and support others in doing the same. Art education programs also build a climate of high expectation, discipline, and academic rigor that attracts businesses and strengthens community. Our students are motivated to change the world through our core values: Respect, Enthusiasm, Courage, Commitment, Excellence, and appreciation for the transformative power of the arts.
