History of the Stocker Arts Center
The Stocker Arts Center is one of the top performing and visual arts venues in Ohio. More than one million people have visited the Center since it opened its doors in 1980 to enjoy one of the thousands of live performances, films, art gallery events and community rental events.
Named after the late C. Paul Stocker – a successful industrialist who believed in philanthropy and service to educational, civic and community organizations – Stocker Arts Center has hosted artists, vocal and instrumental groups, dance and theatre troupes, circus performers, politicians, acrobats, celebrities and more. The center features a 994-seat (maximum - variable from 934 seats) Theatre, a 219-seat Lecture Hall, a 219-seat Cinema Hall, a black box called the Studio Theatre, a Dance Studio, a Rehearsal Hall, and the Beth K. Stocker Art Gallery.
The Stocker Arts Center performances are a variety of professional touring music, theatre, and dance attractions from throughout the United States and around the world. The art gallery exhibitions feature a mixture of student, faculty, community, and professional artists.
The C. Paul Stocker Humanities and Fine Arts Center is also home to the Lorain County Community College (LCCC) Division of Arts & Humanities, and is the performing home for the LCCC Civic Chorale, Orchestra, Concert Band, Jazz Band, and Theatre program.
