Community Arts Partners

We serve as the home base for a dozen community arts groups, the “big stage for little kids” in the Lebanon School District, and presenter of a diverse array of national and international touring artists.

  • 12+ community arts partners
  • 80% of stage time dedicated to community arts partners and school shows
  • 10+ LOH Presents shows per season

Throughout the year, a range of beloved community arts groups and the Lebanon School District (“the big stage for little kids”) set up residence at LOH. Our house becomes their home and we’re proud to uphold a 98-year-commitment to supporting community participation in the arts.

No matter the artist’s age or level of experience, they all have the opportunity to perform on a professional stage with expert technicians and state-of-the-art equipment. Both on- and off-stage, participants receive mentoring by LOH staff who emphasize quality technical production and professionalism.
