Welcome to the Center Stage Chapter of the Guilds

Award Winning Chapter of the Guilds
of the Orange County Performing Arts Center

Center Stage consists of an enthusiastic group of volunteers, all working toward a common goal of providing ongoing support for The Orange County Performing Arts Center, a composite facility that includes all of the performing arts in one beautiful location. The membership dues and fundraising revenues from all Chapters of the Guilds raised over $10,000,000 for The Center since 1985.

Made up of a dynamic group of professionals, executives and entrepreneurs, Center Stage, members are generally over the age of 35, single or married, who have chosen to take an active role in enhancing Orange County's cultural scene.  Members are active in a wide variety of industries, including finance, accounting, politics, communications, marketing, education, medicine, real estate, computers and more. In fact, a survey found more than 40 fields had been represented in our membership.

Besides raising funds for The Performing Arts Center, the purpose of Center Stage is to inspire its members to further their knowledge of, and involvement with, the performing arts and have a lot of fun in the process!

Our Calendar is filled with social hours, special events, Center performances, community service and other opportunities for social interaction, community service and cultural involvement.

Center State has a new Board of Directors.
