The Jefferson Center, a 121,000 square foot center, enriches lives through shared experiences by delivering premier live performances, transformative educational opportunities, and providing a special place for the community engagement. The Jefferson Center offers a robust, year round, live performance schedule. The 2024 Schedule included musical greats like Emmylou Harris, The Wood Brothers, and Kathy Mattea as part of The Star City Series. Jazz and Blues fans will get their fill with the Big Lick Vibes and Jazz Club Series. The beat doesn't stop there, there are also several great rock, folk, bluegrass, and more acts continously being added to the schedule.
The Jefferson Center offers many great experience gift options for the entire family!
Here are a few of our favorite ideas:
For Anyone
The Jefferson Center offers gift certificates so your loved ones and friends can choose the show of their choice. We think a gift card for teachers is a great idea, too! The current schedule runs through May 2025 and there are 15+ performances remaining. See them all here: Jefferson Center Events
For the Family:
Tickets to the Wild World of Animals Live on January 8th start at only $10.

Depending on their taste, there are many options in the new year, like Garrison Keillor, Kathy Mattea, Tatiana Eva-Marie & The Avalon Jazz Band, or the Julius Rodrigues Quartet.

You know them best, but we are looking forward to Chief Adjuah (formerly Christian Scott) and Tina & Her Pony in 2025.
