Join The Egg’s inaugural seat-naming campaign and leave a lasting tribute in our iconic performing arts center. When The Egg reopens after renovations in 2026, a plaque with your personalized engraving will be waiting for you on a brand new seat as a part of this exciting legacy.

Donors giving $1,000 (Benefactor) or $500 (Supporter) may “name” a seat with a personalized message engraved onto a plaque, mounted on the armrest of their selected seat in the Lewis A. Swyer Theatre (440).

Plaques will remain in place for 10 or 5 years, respectively, unless renewed. Your inscription can honor someone special, mark a milestone or favorite performance, share an inspiring quote, or offer words that echo your love for the arts. Your plaque will remain a visible testament to your love of the arts, woven into The Egg’s distinct and inspiring character.
