Thank You Give DeKalb 2024 Donors!

Thank you so much for continued support of the Egyptian Theatre and for your generous donations during Give DeKalb County 2024.

Because of your support, the Egyptian Theatre was able to raise $27,520 on May 2! These funds help to ensure that our historic 1929 art deco theatre continues to thrive as a regional performing arts center. Your generosity allows us to host over 30+ community organizations each year, provide free and discounted programming, bring national and international touring acts to the DeKalb area, and preserve and maintain the historic Theatre which was named as one of the Top 20 Architectural Treasures in Illinois by the State of Illinois.

Listed below are the over 170 donors who helped support us on Give DeKalb County 2024. Thank you!
