Over the past 40 years, Wharton Center has engaged, educated, and uplifted the community through the experience of the performing arts.
We are so thankful for the support from each and every one of the patrons and donors that have walked through our doors. Your support and dedication have allowed us to share the vital role the arts have in our lives: from our first concert on September 25, 1982, featuring the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, to our most recent Broadway show, Pretty Woman: The Musical.
Take a look back at our past and get ready for all the amazing events of the future.
