plan for the future – make a difference now

Planning for the future provides security and peace of mind for you and your loved ones and it’s never too early to start. We want to make it simple for you to carry out your wishes and support the causes that you care about most.

With our partner, FreeWill, you can easily create your will online for free.

Including Playhouse Square in your plans helps guarantee that your legacy has a lasting impact, providing our community with access to the transformative power of the performing arts. 

Once your plans are in place, it is important to review and update them every two to three years and share them with the people you have trusted to carry out your wishes. 

For more complicated estates, a professional advisor, such as an attorney or financial planner, can help you work through the details.
