Venue Information

We opened our doors in May 1996, culminating a 10-year grassroots effort to build a community performing arts center on rural South Whidbey Island. Serving Whidbey and outlying areas, the 246-seat theater hosts a year-round season of diverse offerings. A staff of six full-time and seven part-time employees, with input and assistance from over 400 volunteers, offers patrons a consistent, quality experience and a wide range of arts programs including performances, workshops, and lectures. We have an active 15-member board of directors made up of artists, business people, and other community leaders.

WICA's mission is to inspire, nourish, and enhance the artistic, social,
and economic well being of the community. We do this
by promoting, developing, and presenting a diverse
offering of high quality theatre, music, dance, literature,
and visual arts in an outstanding venue, and by creating
educational and participation opportunities.
