Welcome to The Dairy Center for the Arts, a non-profit cultural arts organization founded in 1992, and one of the only places in Boulder, Colorado to experience dramatic theater, comedy, live music, dance performances and visual arts under one roof.

Housed in the historic Watts-Hardy Dairy building, which once operated as a dairy storage and processing plant, The Dairy is home to more than a dozen premier resident arts organizations.

150,000 people visit The Dairy annually to participate in classes and workshops, and to enjoy award-winning theater, dance and musical performances, as well as outstanding visual arts exhibitions.

The Dairy proudly features three professional theater venues available for rental, three art gallery spaces, an impressive lobby for special events, a community box office, studios, classrooms and a popular cafe.

A substantial gift from The Boedecker Foundation has funded an art house movie theater to be built here. The endowment will also seed the future operations of The Dairy Center, helping to make sure that The Dairy is around and functioning for a long, long time.

Adding a small amount of square footage to the front of The Dairy building assures that growing crowds will be able to enjoy adequate space and easier access to multiple events with a safer, ADA-compliant, convenient entry.  MORE>>>
