Today a new chapter in the history of the Thayer Mansion has begun. The Thayer Performing Arts Center is dedicated to enriching our community through music and the arts. We believe that the skills of perseverance, diligence, and dedication learned from studying music lead to accomplishment and service in many other areas of life. Our mission extends beyond this place and we are committed to bringing the best in performing arts to our community, while inspiring and nurturing our youth, so that they can reach their highest potential. We strive to be a positive presence in our community, providing access to the joy and beauty of music, art, and the performing arts.
