WCPA Accomplishments

 

  • The Westcliffe Center for the Performing Arts was created in 1992 as a not-for-profit corporation to maintain the Historic Jones Theater both as a movie and theater house for the Westcliffe, Colorado Community.
  • Thanks to generous foundation grants and the efforts of many volunteers the theater has been restored and refurbished to its original 30's glamour.
  • A major addition, "Studio 2" was made in 2003.
  • Studio 2 provides sets and costumes, a Youth Theater for rehearsals and exhibits, a home for KWMV radio and living quarters for summer interns.
  • The first outdoor production was presented in 2007 using an outdoor stage and park-like seating area next to the theater on 2nd Street in Westcliffe.
  • We present 8 live theater productions each summer as well as a full season of first-run movies in our theater which has 148 seats.The Amphitheater next to the Historic Jones Theater
  • The local high school drama club presents several productions during the year.
  • The Theater is also used for many concerts ranging from jazz to bluegrass to opera throughout the year.
  • We were honored to receive the El Pomar award for Excellence in Arts and Humanities in 2004 and have continued to expand our artistic horizons. Our new “Shakespeare in the Sangres” initiative for 2008 is an example of our cultural outreach, expansion and service to this rural community.
