What Does the St. Andrews Centre for the Arts Do?

So far, we have renovated and beautified the Arena Complex Theatre. This involved extending the stage, painting the walls, laying down new flooring, fixing up the restrooms, creating a better access route to backstage, replacing old seats with "rescued and refurbished" Fredericton Playhouse seats, and other great stuff like that.
The St. Andrews Centre for the Arts board of directors' goal is to make the theatre accessible to all, with a strong emphasis on the local community. Plans include year-round movies, day time cartoons for children, plays, bands and other musical performances, comedic acts and other shows.

What's Happening in the Future?

Our future goals include: year-round movies, matinees for children, children's performers, plays, bands and other musical performances, comedic acts and other shows. More renovations are also in the plans...

Can I be Notified of Future Happenings?
