Mission Statement

The mission of The Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts (“The Wallis”) is to create, present and celebrate unique performing arts events and educational programs that reflect the rich cultural diversity of our community. Under the leadership of Artistic Director Paul Crewes and Managing Director Rachel Fine, The Wallis brings audiences world-class theater, dance and music, performed by many of the world's most talented and sought-after artists, while also offering robust arts education and outreach programs that make the performing arts accessible to individuals of all ages and backgrounds. We seek to cultivate a home in the heart of Beverly Hills where all members of the Southern California community can participate in the arts. The Wallis presents an annual subscription season of theater, music, dance, and speakers series, which serves 50,000+ ticket buyers from throughout Southern California. We serve as many as 10,000 additional arts learners of all ages through our extensive GRoW @ The Wallis education and outreach programs. Dedicated to fostering inclusion, arts participation and education within the Los Angeles community, GRoW @ The Wallis is designed to foster inclusion and arts participation within the Los Angeles community, especially among those who have traditionally had limited arts access.
