About the Bicentennial Campaign

Ford’s Theatre is currently undergoing the most significant renovation and expansion in the history of the building. The Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Campaign will raise upwards of $50 million in order to dramatically improve the infrastructure and audience amenities of the Theatre itself, expand the museum, and create a new Center for Education and Leadership.

Upon completion, the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Campaign will transform the visitor experience so that people from all walks of life can come and connect with our 16th President and his love of the performing arts.
