A SPECIAL GIFT FROM THE BARNES FAMILY FOUNDATION

The Carolina Theatre of Durham is honored to announce that the Barnes Family Foundation has made a generous $3 million gift as part of its landmark Centennial celebration. As part of this long term partnership, we are thrilled to present the newly named Barnes Box Office and Barnes Stage.

“The Barnes Family Foundation is Hyper-Local, Hyper-Public℠ and proudly Durham Centric. We are proud to protect, enhance, and enliven this gem of Durham with the largest philanthropic gift in the Carolina Theatre’s history. The history is remarkable and treasured. And hopefully with this gift, the future, like the lights on the stage, is bright.” – Barnes Family Foundation
