Clark Center for the Performing Arts

Posted in: Central Coast Activites, Central Coast Attractions

Did you know that we, all the way on the little ole Central Coast, have an absolutely stellar performing arts center? That’s right! The Clark Center for the Preforming Arts in Arroyo Grande is the Central Coast’s premier venue for some the best professional performing arts in California. We like to think that it’s world class! Right up there with other venues in Los Angeles and San Francisco. What makes it even better than venues in big cities is that we have the benefit of a wonderfully intimate setting – without thousands of seats and thousands of other people seeing the preofmrance. When you attend, you’ll feel like the actors or singers are speaking or singing just for you - as though you’d had 100 of your closest friends over for a show on a Friday night.

Since it’s opening ten years ago, the Clark center has become a state-of-the-art hub for all performing arts throughout the county as well as an institution for educational opportunity in the arts.

If you are a local, you should really think about buying season tickets to the shows – that may you will never be without a seat when you’re really inking to paint the town red. See below for an abbreviated schedule of events. You can click on any of the months and learn more about the specific acts that month.
