Community Programs

The Vilar Performing Arts Center prides itself on being a community resource. As such, the theatre is committed to nurturing the cultural passions of our youth and all members of our community.

Nurturing Future Artists:
The Vilar Center provides local music, dance and drama students tickets to selected performances at no charge, giving them the rare opportunity to experience renowned artists and fueling their dreams of performing on stage.

Vilar Center Community Performance Fund:
Each year, this Fund underwrites the technical, production, labor and theatre-usage costs for approximately ten local dance, music and theatrical performances. This gives artists the opportunity to experience the excitement of performing on an incredible stage with professional production qualities and support.

Community Use Fund:
The Vilar Performing Arts Center opens its doors to other Eagle County non-profits by hosting fundraisers, lectures and performances at a reduced cost to the organizations. Approximately 25 local groups take advantage of this annually.
