It's been a strange year, to say the least, and we're all still grappling with the social and economic impacts and challenges that have taken this year by storm. Thank you for helping us keep our doors open, allowing us to keep bringing entertainment into our community and our staff employed.
We are taking regional, provincial, and federal government health orders seriously. Our theatre is still screening films at a reduced 50-person capacity, but this measure has deeply impacted our financial stability this year. We are so grateful for your generosity, as we need your support more than ever.
Help us achieve 25% of this goal today - $5,000 on Giving Tuesday. Making a generous gift to The Civic today ensures a great 2021 full of film screenings, drive-in movies, artist residencies, free community events, economic development for the local film sector, and more.

Thank you for your support!

Help Us Build The Civic Theatre's Future
In the last decade, NCTS has grown The Civic Theatre into a vital community hub, raising millions to modernize and revitalize our space. Now, we need your help to get through our toughest year yet and bring our vision of a three-screen venue to life.
A Critical Year of Need
With The Civic Theatre closed due to city repairs, we’ve lost 80% of our revenue, and our renovation won’t begin until early 2025. We need $150,000 to fund operations and stay on track. Reaching 50% of this goal by December 31 will support films at The Shoebox, accessible community events, Reo’s Video, and our ongoing regional film programs. It will also give our team the capacity to steward our path through completing our major capital renovation.
Be Part of Our Bright Future: How You Can Help
Every donation keeps The Civic strong and resilient for our community. Join us in securing a revitalized theatre that will serve Nelson and the Kootenay region for years to come.
All donors making gifts of $20 or more will receive a charitable receipt.
