About

The Norwich Arts Center (NAC) was formed originally as the Norwich Arts Council in 1987 by a group of local artists and arts-lovers who were inspired by the region’s cultural possibilities. Our mission is to provide affordable programming in a variety of arts that reflects the area’s rich diversity and deepens arts appreciation. NAC is an all-volunteer run, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in a historic building at 60-64 Broadway in downtown Norwich CT. We have two galleries on the first floor, offices on the second floor, and the 134-seat Donald L. Oat Theater on the third floor. It takes many hands and significant funds to run our programs and care for our facility. We thank and acknowledge the generous contributions of our Board, volunteers, members, artists and performers, Friends of NAC, sponsors, granting organizations and community supporters. To say we couldn’t do it without them couldn’t be more obvious. We welcome your support, whether through membership, financial gifting and sponsorships, volunteerism, or serving on a committee.
