The pursuit of creativity, and the way it connects us, inspires everything we do at Center for the Arts. We provide a creative environment that inspires exceptional performances, events, and initiatives that enlighten, entertain, and reflect the best of the arts and our humanity.

​

This past season, we had more than 10,000 individuals participate in our art programs; over 900 people attend our Lunch with Authors series; over 200 children perform in our children’s theatre; 5 public art installations in our lobby gallery; and supported the work of over 45 local artists. Not to mention our 450 new theatre seats! It has been a spectacular year at the Center for the Arts!
 

Our 2023-2024 season is centered on even more growth and inspiration — packed with concerts, family-focused entertainment, opportunities for community engagement, and personal enrichment steeped in the arts. The University of South Carolina Beaufort provides a venue for our programming, but your donations, local community partners, volunteers, and sponsors help support production, marketing, and other costs related to delivering programming at the Center.

​

Your support makes it possible to continue providing astounding performances and programs. No matter the amount, gifts of all sizes support the Center’s mission and vision. In addition, your contribution is tax-deductible and the IRS now allows a tax break for charitable giving up to $300. As an added bonus, you’ll receive our special new donor benefits, listed below. This makes your donation a gift that benefits you, your community, and the Center for the Arts!

​

Whether you enjoy our theatre productions, musical performances, or other community-centered events, art allows us to transport ourselves, inspire future generations, and transform our community. Together, we can bring people together through the arts and inspire creativity for years to come.

​

Thank you for supporting the Center for the Arts!
