About Our Facility
Following years of planning, fund raising and finally construction, the Racine Theatre Guild moved to its current location at 2519 Northwestern Avenue (Highway 38) in October 1976. While the RTG owns its building, it's located on land owned by the City of Racine in the Charles A. Wustum Memorial Park, beside the Wustum campus of the Racine Art Museum. Thanks to donors who contributed during a three-year capital campaign (2000-2003), the facility has recently been improved and transformed. These are some of the physical features of the Racine Theatre Guild:

adjacent to building
