CENTER FOR EVERYTHING
2025 ANNUAL APPEAL
CENTER FOR EVERYTHING The Center is more than a venue. It is a classroom, a gathering space, a community hub, and a home for creativity. From world-class artists and thought-provoking speakers to supporting Resident summer camps and community-wide celebrations, The Center provides the backdrop for what makes Jackson special. Your support sustains the building, the programming, and the collaborations that make Jackson’s Center for Everything possible. Make a gift to The Center today to sustain our mission and ensure that artists, students, families, and neighbors can continue to find inspiration for generations to come.

MISSION To connect our creative community by providing a dedicated campus, supporting excellent programming, and nurturing a collaborative spirit.
CENTER FOR SHARED EXPERIENCES Each season, The Center brings together people for transformative artistic and cultural experiences. From intimate evenings with world-renowned performers to affordable family programs, we create opportunities for all to connect through the arts. Our spaces are designed for both inspiration and belonging.
A robust 2025 Center Presents season featured 63 events, including Grammy® Award- winners Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, Keb’ Mo’, and Lyle Lovett. Ticket sales cover 61% of the cost to bring people together for such shows; the rest is made possible by our community of supporters. The Center drew over 100,000 visitors to our campus last year. Nearly 60 community events invited participation free of charge.

CENTER FOR COLLABORATION The Center provides a foundation for Jackson’s creative ecosystem. Affordable rental rates help 20 Resident nonprofits to thrive on campus, while programs like Artful Hour invite the community to explore and engage with the artistic process and one another. The arts and education nonprofits that call The Center home pay an average of $16 per square foot for their leased space, well under the Jackson Hole average of $47. The Center Park, The Center Commons, and Theater Lobby are open to the public 360 days each year, fostering collaboration across the community. The Center offers affordable rental rates, event production services, and marketing support to nonprofit organizations using campus event spaces. Thirty collaborations took place on campus between The Center and other community nonprofits in 2025.
CENTER FOR POSSIBILITY The Center is where creativity and community meet. Every gift ensures the lights stay on, the doors stay open, and the arts remain accessible to all. Together, we can keep Jackson’s Center for Everything thriving for our community.
