New Canopy Needs You!
Our Capital Campaign for a New Home
After more than two decades in our current home, we are thrilled to share the next chapter: Canopy is launching a capital campaign to build a larger, purpose-designed facility for Canopy Studio in 2026—one that will allow us to imagine more for our students, performers, and community.
Our current space has served us well, but we have reached the limits of what it can hold. Just imagine, this new facility will allow us to:
- Create multiple teaching spaces, reducing the need for classes to share or overlap
- Add expanded parking for safer and easier access
- Build additional bathrooms to meet the needs of our growing community
- Provide dedicated viewing areas during classes and performances
- Incorporate classroom and meeting space for workshops, community partnerships, new programming, and student support
- Establish a welcoming lobby and gathering area where community can flourish
This is a bold step—and we cannot move forward without you.
How You Can Support This Vision
If you feel inspired to help us take this next leap, we warmly invite you to support our capital campaign. Your generosity moves us closer to a home that will serve our community for generations.
To reach our first construction milestones, we are seeking:
- $250,000 before the end of this year,
- $100,000 before March 1, 2026, and
- $100,000 before September 1, 2026.
Your contribution—at any level—directly builds the future of Canopy.
