THE CENTER FUND
PARKING FOR CENTER EVENTS
The Center Fund was established in 2014 to address The Center’s fundraising needs. Current priorities include repayment of the organization’s outstanding debt from its capital campaign, growing the annual fund, and building endowment in support of programming and facility maintenance.
Free parking is available in the multi-level parking structure on the corner of Milward and Simpson. Parking is also available in the public lot on the north side of the theater and street-side on Cache and Glenwood. Curbside drop-off is available in front of the theater or on Cache Street. Carpooling and use of the public START Bus is encouraged.
CENTER SPONSORS
The Center presents a wide variety of programs each year for the enjoyment of the Jackson Hole community. Offering these high-caliber events is possible only with the help of generous sponsors—ticket sales alone do not cover the costs of these performances.
THANKS TO OUR VOLUNTEERS
Many thanks to our our dedicated volunteer ushers, who play a vital role in the success of programming on our creative campus.
