Bringing The Arts To Life
In Crozet
Meet Crozet Arts
Crozet Arts is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to building community through accessible creative practice across disciplines—theater, dance, music, visual arts, and movement—
and for all ages, right here in Crozet, Virginia.
Come and join us!
CLASSES BY DISCIPLINE
We celebrate curiosity, creativity, and community by offering experiences that invite people of all ages to move, make, learn, and grow together.
The Hamner Theater, a nonprofit theater company founded in 2005, is in residence at Crozet Arts under the artistic leadership of Boomie Pedersen. Rooted in community storytelling and open, accessible theater, The Hamner creates performances, workshops, and conversations that bring hidden stories to light and make theater available to all—one play, one story, and one community at a time.
UPCOMING EVENTS
at The Hamner Theater
IN THE CAFÉ:
Sunday, May 3 @ 2pm - 3:30 Short Story Theater of Virginia is back for more, a special May Day Short Story Theater performance. To quote Larry Goldstein, our fearless leader:
"Come see our new show, "May Day" which we are now calling "Short Story Theater" which says what it is and no one need wonder what is "Playback Theater" at least this time.
Short Story Theater is designed to be poignant, fun, funny, creative, community building and often inspiring.
Come welcome Spring with us at the Hamner and as always, there will be tea and cookies to accompany the performance!
Email boomiepedersen@gmail.com to reserve your seat(s);suggested donation: $20"
JUNETEENTH at the Hamner:
We are delighted to announce that David Straughn will bring his production of August Wilson's memoir play How I Learned What I Learned to the Hamner Blackbox for June 19 and June 20 at 7:30. This thought provoking piece will doubtless engender vigorous conversation. Join us!
All Hamner evening events begin at 7:30 with the house opening at 7:00.
All Sunday events start at 2pm and the house opens at 1:30pm.
Reservations may be made by calling 434-960-5936 or emailing
