Our Story<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Opened in 1966, Mitchell Fine Arts Center<\/a> hosts a wide array of local and professional performance companies, along with school, community and academic events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The building centers around its unique double-sided stage. The 3,400 square-foot stage features the intimate half-round Carrick Theater on one side and the impressive Haggin Auditorium on the other side. This highly versatile and rare design offers users the unique ability to customize the stage layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haggin Auditorium and Carrick Theater are surrounded by a wide array of other assets and venues, including Coleman Recital Hall and the Morlan Gallery<\/a>. Connected by a breezeway is the Lucille Little Theater, a stand-alone facility featuring a 40 by 60-foot black box theater that is home to Transylvania\u2019s Theater Program<\/a>. The Lucille C. Little Theater was designed in collaboration with the world-famous Fisher Dachs Associates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/div>

You can see professional theater, professional dance, music, everything else all in Lexington. But then you can also be on the Transy campus, and you can go and see a concert and know everyone in the audience and have a great time.<\/em><\/p><\/div>
