The Lompoc Theatre Project has received a $150,000.00 grant pledge from the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians. This is by far the most substantial opportunity for LTP.

"We are proud to support efforts that foster community enrichment through the arts and have the potential to bring together people from diverse backgrounds," said Kenneth Kahn, tribal chairman for the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians.
Theatre ambassadors, the Lompoc Theatre Project, kicked off the three-phase community-led project in 2012 with a goal to restore the historic theater to its former glory as a hub for arts and culture in the area.
