About The Straz
The Straz Center inspires audiences and artists to dream and discover, to create and celebrate.
For 25 years, the beauty and importance of the Straz Center has been that it’s bigger than any one performance or genre. It’s a stunning community destination that offers a gamut of live performances and unique experiences. It’s also a nurturing home to passionate local artists and internationally known performers. A haven where teachers help students of all ages feel safe to discover and express themselves. And a source of pride for employees, volunteers and patrons. The Straz feeds the spirit, sparks inspiration and transforms lives. It breaks down barriers and unites our community. It’s a place where anything is possible – and where anything can happen. Join us. We can’t wait to see what happens next.
