Guild Theater

The historic Guild Theater is an urban center for performing arts and cinema. The Guild is managed by St. Hope, a nonprofit community development corporation whose mission is to revitalize inner-city communities through public education, civic leadership, economic development, and the arts. Established in 1989 by NBA All-Star, Oak Park native, and future-mayor Kevin Johnson, St. Hope educates, trains, and empowers citizens to change the landscaped of low-income areas, beginning with the Oak Park neighborhood in Sacramento.
