Donate to the Capital Campaign

Fort Lauderdale’s oldest and most historically significant surviving structure is thrilled to announce the initiation of its highly anticipated Capital Campaign. The Capital Campaign aims to enhance Stranahan House's facilities and offerings, ensuring its continued significance as a vital cultural institution.

Proceeds from the Capital Campaign will facilitate the renovation and expansion of Stranahan House's facilities, beginning with the addition of The Egret Classroom, a state-of-the-art education center, and a modern catering kitchen designed by KitchenWorks. The project will also encompass ADA-compliant facilities, including restrooms, as well as an onsite archival and storage facility.

Across the newly designed Dwight & Virginia Rogers Celebration Courtyard, a new building will be erected to house a ticketing window and serve as a welcoming gateway for visitors to downtown Fort Lauderdale. This multifunctional space, generously funded by the City of Fort Lauderdale and Broward, Palm Beaches, and St. Lucie Realtors, will feature an event pavilion and serve as the new location for Stranahan House's gift shop, allowing for the creation of an engaging new exhibit within the historic structure.
