Community Outreach

We believe cost should not be a barrier to coming to the theater and have created free or low-cost opportunities for people of all ages, backgrounds and cultures to enjoy the magic of live performances.


 

Our Community Programs

The Herberger Theater Center has made a strong commitment to sustain its outreach programs and collaborations for youth by providing them with an opportunity to experience the beauty and magic of the visual and performing arts. Each year, thousands of youth have an opportunity to take the stage and shine in the spotlight.
