Restoration

We are working to restore The Cole Porter Birthplace to its 1891 condition while creating a museum that will be open for public tours.

Restoring landmarks is familiar territory for the Ole Olsen Memorial Theater. Restoration credits include The Peru Depot (currently, the Ole Olsen Theater) and the Wabash/Erie Canal toll house.

Our continuing restoration effort relies heavily on the generous support of public donations. Visit our donations page for more information on how you can help save this landmark home for generations to come!
