Explore one of the nation's most expansive collections of theatrical costumes, boasting more than 30,000 unique costume pieces.

Now their shared warehouse with more than 17,000 square feet of space devoted to the preservation of these extraordinary garments is open to the public for guided tours. CostumeRentals guides provide information about a wide variety of costume materials and their construction, highlighting individual pieces from the Guthrie's rich history.
