Every gift can help advance the arts at Ole Miss and across the region.

The Ford Center gives back to the community through vibrant, diverse arts programming. Show your appreciation!

Your gift will help the Ford Center move forward, helping to maintain facilities and bring long-lasting financial security to the region's premier performing arts venue.

The Ford Center opened its doors in 2003 as a state-of-the-art facility and remains the only one of its kind in the area. By supporting the Celebrating the Arts campaign, you strengthen the arts and cultural opportunities available to the Ole Miss community and region.

The Celebrating the Arts campaign aims to increase the endowment of the Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts to $3 million. Ongoing private support is crucial to the continued success of the Ford Center and enhances the future of the arts at Ole Miss.

For 16 years now, the Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts has provided a rich array of arts and cultural opportunities for our community. Your investment ensures that we continue offering vibrant programs appealing to all ages and benefiting the entire region.

After 16 years, the Ford Center -- like any public space that is in near-constant use -- requires repairs and maintenance to maintain its beauty and functionality. By investing in the Ford Center Endowment, you help ensure that these needs are met in perpetuity.

The Ford Center has featured everything from the 2008 Presidential Debate to Broadway tours. Your support of this campaign helps provide enriching programming for the Ole Miss community and the region.

Robert C. Khayat was instrumental is securing the funding necessary to establish such an outstanding performing arts center on the Oxford campus. Honor this beloved Ole Miss leader today with a gift to the Celebrating the Arts campaign. Together, we can build resources to expand his legacy and continue bringing magnificent programs to the Ford Center stage.
