Audience Members enjoy a concert at the Smith Opera HouseTicket sales and other revenue streams do not completely cover the cost of operating our historic theater. Therefore, we depend on your generosity to sustain our mission. When you become a member at The Smith, you support a 125 year old landmark.

The Smith Center for the Arts is recognized as a charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code; a portion of your membership contribution may be deductible.
