Downtown San José deserves extraordinary live experiences.
As SJSU’s performing arts home, the Hammer Theatre Center brings nationally and internationally recognized artists, speakers, and performers to our stage — connecting our community to bold ideas, global perspectives, and unforgettable moments.
This Day of Giving, your support helps us continue presenting high-caliber programming that reflects the energy, innovation, and diversity of Silicon Valley.

Your gift helps us:
- Secure renowned artists and thought leaders
- Support production and technical excellence
- Keep ticket prices accessible for our community
- Ensure downtown San José remains a destination for live arts
When we bring world-class voices to the Hammer, we strengthen our city’s cultural landscape and reinforce SJSU’s role as a leader in arts and public engagement.
Join us in keeping San José connected to the best of what live performance can offer.
