We are one of the nation’s largest not-for-profit arts organizations. We are dedicated to enriching and improving the lives of each member of our community.
We present the largest Broadway season in the Carolinas, along with a large array of special attractions and festivals, from concerts to comedy to dance and much more.
We manage four theaters where the curtain goes up on more than 1,000 events annually, including performances by our 16 resident companies. More than 8.3 million people attended events in our theaters during our first 30 seasons.
We present the Charlotte International Arts Festival (CIAF), a Blumenthal Arts Original. CIAF uniquely brings together Charlotte’s local and international communities with global artists in a cultural celebration, with most events free and outdoors.
We innovate with cutting edge immersive projects, coming off the most successful presentation of Immersive van Gogh in North America with over 300,000 tickets sold.
We inspire kids to Dream Big Dreams. More than 150,000 students participate annually in programs ranging from internships to specially priced show tickets to The Blumey Awards, which celebrates excellence in high school musical theater.
We believe the arts unite and transform individual lives. We ensure access through our Arts For All Access Grants, which serve thousands of individuals each year with free and subsidized ticket and programs.
We shape the future of the arts through the new and original works we help produce and by nurturing artists. We support Charlotte artists, like our award-winning Slam Charlotte poets and the Blumenthal Fellows. We also help shape each Broadway season in New York through our investments in new musical and plays. We have won 13 Tony Awards.
We infuse more than $80 million annually into our local economy. We gratefully are supported by individuals, corporations and government whose charitable gifts enable us to accomplish so much in our community.
