 SOPA Mission and Vision

Estes ParkThe mission of SOPA is simple and straightforward. SOPA is committed to establishing a performing arts center worthy of the rapidly growing arts community in the Estes Valley.

The vision of SOPA is to serve the community, to speak the languages of all performing arts, to engage people more deeply than performances alone are able to, in order to impact citizens in lasting ways that increases the value of the performing arts in their lives.

Those of us who live in Estes Park, the most beautiful mountain town in America, are being presented an opportunity to participate in the building of a performing arts center, a real working theater, for everyone - young and old - to enjoy. It will be a theater we can attend to be inspired, uplifted, to laugh, to cry, to experience the full range of human emotions.

SOPA, Inc is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

 Overview

Grand PianoSOPA is currently engaging supporters towards progress in all phases of this effort, including fund raising, theater and site design, naming rights and theater use rights. 

SOPA is working to raise a total of $5,000,000 for this project through various means. 

Estes Park is rich with talent, an yet there is no home for the many gifted.  Theater instills a greater sense of community, providing educational opportunities in communication, camaraderie, and an outlet for the talent of all ages.  Theater is a dynamic asset.

This venue will host plays, musicals, summer repertory theater, band, orchestra concerts, theater workshops, small ensemble performances, piano recitals, quartets, jazz festivals, and various social functions to name just a few.

Estes Park will be blessed for years to come with an arena for holding these events.  Our children, the future, would be enriched by a wide host of programming available to them.  The site is adjacent to the Estes Park school campus and thus will create added synergy and opportunities for all.

The arts give us all a greater appreciation of life and enhance our overall quality of life.  This center will also enrich our community by new opportunities, raising the level of the performing arts, and exposure to new experiences.  It will create a new night life, which can benefit local businesses, and will become a family resort destination, resulting in longer visits and providing for exciting activities in Town all year round.

Your pledges are the building blocks - one brick at a time.  A theater for our community is an investment in our future.  The Supporters of the Performing Arts cherish your pledge.  The stage is set and it is curtain time.  Places everyone!
