Free Community Programs
We believe in the power of culture, creativity, and connection. That's why we offer a range of free community performances and programs designed to engage, inspire, and bring people together.
Our mission is to create accessible cultural experiences that foster a sense of belonging and spark the imagination of all who participate. Whether you're enjoying a free Jazz Jam in the Atrium or participating in Dance and Move weekly session you'll be part of a vibrant, welcoming community where everyone can enjoy the arts.
We’re proud to offer these events at no cost, thanks to the generous support of our donors, sponsors, and partners.
If you believe in accessible arts and want to help us keep these programs free, consider making a donation, every dollar makes a difference, and as a registered charity, we’ll make sure it goes a long way.
