The Take-A-Seat Campaign is a fundraising initiative at the D’Youville Kavinoky Theatre. Donations to the Take-A-Seat Campaign go towards supporting and funding the Kavinoky Theatre’s seasons and future artistic productions and events.

Following the recent renovation of the D’Youville Kavinoky’s theater, the Take-A-Seat Campaign offers patrons the opportunity to be commemorated in our beautiful theater space with a personalized nameplate engraved on one of our theater seats. The campaign is the perfect gift for yourself and loved ones and way to recognize your love of live theatre.

Support of live theatre is needed now more than ever, and your generous donation to our Take-A-Seat Campaign helps ensure we at the Kavinoky Theatre can continue to bring high-quality theatre to wide audiences.

ALL donations in the Take—A-Seat Campaign include:

• One (1) personalized nameplate engraving on a seat of your choosing.

• A personalized thank you letter for your generous donation to our campaign and support of the Kav.

• One (1) photo of your seat with the finished personalized engraving plate on it.
