Unique among the landscape of arts and cultural centers
that exist in America, Midland Center for the Arts embraces
the idea that you can create as well as appreciate. "The
Center helps to satisfy the creative drives that exist in
all of us," noted Alden B. Dow at the dedication of
the Center building more than three decades ago.
At the time, The Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow Foundation
became the lead donor ($4.1 million) in a $7.8 million campaign
to build Midland Center for the Arts. They also set
up a $2.5 million endowment fund. Today, the foundation
continues to support the Center and its programs. The Midland
Center for the Arts building was designed by Alden Dow to
promote the relationship between art and science. Visit
the Herbert H. Dow Foundation web site at: www.hhdowfdn.org.
In keeping with the original vision, Midland Center for
the Arts represents community-based programs, professional
programs, presentations and tours, exhibits, lectures, fairs,
and films that focus on the arts, humanities and science through
the innovative offerings and exciting work of our diverse
resident groups:

- MATRIX:MIDLAND
Festival
- Music Society
- Midland Symphony Orchestra
- Theatre Guild
- Alden B. Dow Museum of
Science and Art
- Midland County
Historical Society

Through their offerings, we are home for nearly 2,000 volunteers
and tens of thousands of visitors from across mid-Michigan
every year.
To fully experience Midland Center for the Arts, your
active participation as an artist and audience member is
encouraged. Attend a performance, view an exhibit, participate
in a class, audition
for a show, volunteer.
We urge you to become part of our mission and to discover
the many opportunities available.
