Description

A working dairy until the late '80s, this historic, 40,000 square-foot building is now dedicated instead to churning out top artistic performances and supporting the Boulder art scene. Fifteen arts organizations--from performance to visual--make the space their home, enjoying discounted memberships and access to a professional performance space, two theaters, three galleries, classrooms, and a conference room that The Dairy maintains. There's almost always an interesting performance of some sort going on here. One night you might see the Frequent Flyers aerial dance production, and the next, a staging of Les Miserables by the CenterStage Theatre Company. Check the website for upcoming events and performances. The space also offers different classes to the community, and hosts many art exhibits.
