Bill Edwards Foundation for the Arts

Our mission is to educate, inspire, and entertain everyone in our community through performing arts, with an emphasis on school children and underserved families. The Foundation and Theater aim to deliver unrivaled culturally diverse performing arts experiences to our patrons.

At just over 2,000 seats, The Mahaffey Theater is both intimate and inclusive. Because it features state-of-the-art acoustic excellence, there isn’t a bad seat in this house – from the orchestra front row to the back of the balcony, to the three levels of grand opera-style viewing boxes! And whether your preference is to sit up front, off to the side or right in the middle of things, becoming a member of the Bill Edwards Foundation for the Arts means you get the opportunity to buy tickets before the general public.
