Mission Statement
We believe the arts are essential to a complete human experience and to the creation of a vibrant, healthy community. TCAN serves the MetroWest region by increasing opportunities to experience, participate in, and learn about the arts. To this end, TCAN strives to present arts programs of the highest standard that are available to everyone. TCAN dedicates its resources to providing community access to diverse arts programs, reducing barriers to attendance, and building appreciation through arts education.
Description
Located in a historic firehouse in the heart of Natick Center Cultural District, TCAN is the MetroWest region's premier performing arts organization. National touring acts have included Don McLean, The Smithereens, Vanilla Fudge, Shawn Colvin, Paula Poundstone and many others.

These amenities, and a variety of arts education programs, family events, TCAN Players community theater productions and art exhibitions attract over 30,000 attendees annually.
