UPDATE: Thank you all so much for coming together so quickly to meet the first goal. I updated the goal to $3,500 to cover a wrought iron bench (instead of $2000 green plastic) and to cover the GFM that comes out at the end. I know we can get this updated goal met quickly. Thank you SO MUCH. ❤️ -Emma

Honor the Legacy of Mike Roark with a Memorial Bench in College Hill Park

Join us in celebrating the life and impact of Mike Roark. Beloved actor, writer and director who inspired generations of young performers. Mike dedicated a big part of his life to fostering creativity, confidence and a love for the arts in children and teens. To honor his memory, we are raising funds to place a commemorative park bench in College Hill Park, a place where the community can gather and remember his incredible spirit.

Memorial Benches through The City of Wichita are $2000. There is currently one memorial bench left in College Hill Park. We will be able to secure the bench once the money is raised.

Your donation will help create a lasting tribute to Mike, ensuring that his passion for Theatre and mentorship continues to inspire for years to come. Thank you for helping us honor Mike's remarkable legacy.
