YEAR-END GIVING

It feels so good to be together again, sharing the magical connection that comes from experiencing live theater as part of an audience. We are deeply grateful to our supporters for helping to make it possible, we wouldn’t have made it here without your generosity. Support is more crucial than ever as we continue to recover from the devastating revenue losses of the last two seasons. A year-end contribution will help us continue to reach audiences, students, and community members as we move forward in this new post pandemic world. With your help, we will continue producing world-class theater, educating students, and bringing the joy of live theater to our audiences.

 

 

 

 

ANNUAL WINTER COAT DRIVE

Do you have a new or gently used coat sitting in your closest at home? For over two decades, Paper Mill Playhouse has been a collection site for the Jersey Cares Winter Coat Drive. If you have a coat you would like to donate, please put them in the collection baskets located in the lobby. Let's help keep New Jersey residents warm this holiday season.

DOWNTOWN MILLBURN GALLERY FINALLY OPENS

Internationally renowned chef and artist Jesús Núñez, who sometimes uses his kitchen tools as opposed to paint brushes, decided to elevate his artwork by opening a contemporary art gallery in Millburn. The gallery features original abstract paintings made from high-quality materials that complement a wide range of tastes and styles. The gallery’s mission is to help you select a piece that best meets your needs and completes your vision. After the setbacks of Hurricane Ida, Jesús is proud to say that the J. Nunez Gallery is now open.
