As a nonprofit organization, the support of individuals, corporations and foundations enables us to continue our mission: “To restore and maintain Shea’s Buffalo Theatre for present and future generations to enjoy as a working historic theatre providing a wide variety of live performing arts experiences for our patrons and innovative and effective educational experiences fostering an appreciation of live theatre by area youth.”
Every effort has been made to ensure these listings reflect gifts of $250 or more made to Shea’s Annual Fund during the past 12 months as of December 1, 2025.
