Centrum Foundation

Workshops, performances and education programs: more than 10,000 people partake in Centrum programs each year. The majority of activity happens in the summer when Centrum offers workshops in jazz, blues, fiddle tunes and writing for students of all ages. Performances at the mccurdy pavilion and wheeler theater, for the benefit of the general public, are the culmination of the workshops. In addition, Centrum offers programs specifically for Washington youth, including a high school summer arts camp, water world (for 5th and 6th graders), and explorations (for middle schoolers). Nearly 460 artists utilize Centrum cottages each year to create new works.

Public awareness and marketing activities: Centrum activities are marketed through brochures, print, radio and television advertising as well as extensively through our website, facebook, twitter and other social networking sites. The website features new content daily through blogs and other material provided by staff, students and volunteers.
