Help us preserve La MaMa’s treasured archive materials!
Protect the La MaMa Archive
The La MaMa Archive is a one-of-a-kind resource documenting, preserving, and interpreting the legacy of nearly 160,000 artists who have made La MaMa their creative home to explore new forms of expression since 1961. Without the proper environmental controls, our entire collection is at risk of deterioration.
We must raise $51,480 to match the National Endowment for the Humanities grant to put critical climate control measures in place. Donations to the La MaMa Archive will go directly to improving our space and protecting the work of thousands of groundbreaking artists for future generations.

Support La MaMa
La MaMa puts its trust in its artists. We provide the space and the support that creates an environment in which the artist can experiment and take risks. For more than 60 years, we have experienced the power of art and storytelling to break barriers, foster empathy, and dismantle oppressive ways of seeing. Dedicated to the artist and all aspects of the theater, La MaMa is a vital thread in the cultural fabric of New York City. We are deeply grateful to you for your support!
Capital Campaign
The $24 million capital renovation of La MaMa's landmark building at 74A East 4th Street has preserved its historic façade and transformed its interior with ADA accessible spaces, flexible performance venues, and a data-wide building network to facilitate cross-cultural engagement across distance.
While the building is officially reopened to our community, we're not done yet! Join Harvey Fierstein today to help us close our remaining $3 million funding gap to ensure that underrepresented artists of different identities, ideologies, and aesthetics will have a creative home in the East Village for decades to come.
