About

Our mission at the Lisa Smith Wengler Center for the Arts at Pepperdine University is to present an innovative, unique, entertaining, and diverse program of exceptional performances and museum exhibitions. We enhance the educational experience for all students, foster artistic excellence and creativity, and connect Pepperdine University to the richly varied communities of greater Los Angeles.

Donors like you supply critical funding for all Center for the Arts programming, including the popular ARTSReach program for schools, which provides free performances to schoolchildren. Ticket prices cover only a fraction of the costs of operating the Center for the Arts. Your donation empowers us to continue to bring you performances and exhibitions from around the country and around the world.

Thank you for your generosity and and your support of the Lisa Smith Wengler Center for the Arts! Your support continues to inspire students and communities, fostering creativity, artistic excellence, and a lifelong love of the arts.
