Name Your Seat at the Spa Little Theater

SARATOGA SPRINGS —
Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC) is launching a seat campaign for the historic Spa Little Theater, offering community members a unique opportunity to become part of the theater’s next chapter by dedicating a seat in the newly renovated venue.

As renovation work continues in the theater, supporters may honor a loved one, celebrate a family legacy, recognize a business, or commemorate a meaningful connection to SPAC with a personalized seat plaque. 

“In 1966, members of the Saratoga community came together to build SPAC. Sixty years later, that same spirit of generosity continues through the remarkable public and private support that is making the Spa Little Theater renovation possible,” says Elizabeth Sobol, Chief Executive Officer of Saratoga Performing Arts Center. “We are thrilled to invite our community to participate in this historic project by dedicating a seat in the new theater – a lasting tribute that will help ensure this treasured venue serves artists, audiences and future generations for decades to come.”

 SPAC is currently undertaking a $12 million renovation of the historic Spa Little Theater, in partnership with New York State Parks. The project marks the first major renovation of the 500-seat venue since its construction in 1935. Designed to preserve the theater’s historic character and celebrated acoustics while improving accessibility, comfort, and functionality. The renovation will transform the venue into a vibrant year-round home for artistic performances, educational programming and community events ahead of its anticipated December 2026 re-opening. 

Seat dedications are available at levels of $1,000 and $2,500 and will remain in place for a minimum of 25 years. All proceeds will support the Spa Little Theater renovation and SPAC’s Four Seasons Campaign. To learn more or reserve a seat, visit spac.org or contact seatcampaign@spac.org.
