Kentucky's Mighty Wurlitzer-Theater Organ Project Inc is a non-profit organization located in Lexington, Kentucky. The organization was founded in 1997 with the aim of restoring and preserving the historic Mighty Wurlitzer theater organ located in the Kentucky Theater in downtown Lexington.

The Mighty Wurlitzer is a large pipe organ that was built by the Wurlitzer Company in 1927. It was installed in the Kentucky Theater and has been an integral part of the theater's history ever since. However, over the years, the organ fell into disrepair and was no longer functioning properly.

The Kentucky's Mighty Wurlitzer-Theater Organ Project Inc set out to restore the Mighty Wurlitzer to its former glory. The organization raised funds through donations and grants and worked with experts to restore the organ's pipes, bellows, and other components.

Today, the Mighty Wurlitzer is once again fully functional and is used for concerts and special events at the Kentucky Theater. The Kentucky's Mighty Wurlitzer-Theater Organ Project Inc continues to maintain and care for the historic organ, ensuring that it can be enjoyed by generations to come.
