Jefferson Center for the Arts

The Jefferson Center for the Arts (JCA) is a nonprofit organization in Mt Shasta devoted to promoting the arts and enriching the lives of people of all ages. As a 501(c)3 organization, we are committed to promoting the well-being of our region through the ARTS and ARTS EDUCATION.

Since our establishment in 2017 as a grass-roots community endeavor  we have served as the primary center for theatrical and musical education for children in the region. We're the home of Mt Shasta Childrens Theatre and Camp Broadway! Our center offers a variety of theatre, dance and music classes for all ages. We strive to provide affordable classes and create scholarships to ensure inclusivity.

But we do more than that! Enriching the lives of people goes beyond the classroom. We also serve as a regional hub for live music, comedy, and visual arts, significantly contributing to the social, economic, and cultural development of the area. Our programming is diverse and eclectic, bringing acts from all over the world to our region. From comedy to bluegrass, jazz, world music, and beyond, we are dedicated to providing a place for the community to experience top-notch entertainment and enriching educational opportunites..

At JCA, we believe that the arts have the power to transform people's lives. By supporting us, you are supporting the arts and making a significant difference in the lives of children and adults alike. We rely on the generosity of our donors to continue making the arts accessible and affordable to everyone. Join us in our mission to make the arts an essential part of everyone's lives.
