After more than two years of construction, Aurora Theatre and the City of Lawrenceville are proud to announce that the highly-anticipated $35 million Lawrenceville Arts Center is ready to welcome the public for its debut season.
In honor of its completion, the arts center hosted “A Million Dreams Grand Opening Celebration” Oct. 22-24. The event featured tours, exclusive experiences, and performances from Aurora favorites.

In the words of the theatre…
“Gearing up to program and manage this massive expansion while attempting to raise $5 million during a pandemic is not how I imagined this process would begin. But none of this has dampened our enthusiasm for the Grand Opening Celebration. Small groups experiencing a personal and immersive introduction is much better than any rubber chicken gala. I am as excited as I have ever been about what the Lawrenceville Arts Center will mean for the community. The possibilities are endless.”
-Anthony Rodriguez, Aurora Theatre President and CEO & Co-Founder
