The Centene Center for the Arts is a dynamic, vibrant arts accelerator owned and operated by the Arts and Education Council and strategically located in the Grand Center Arts District.  Through a leadership gift from the Centene Charitable Foundation, the Centene Center provides sixteen arts organizations with administrative office spaces offered at below-market rates along with rehearsal, collaborative, exhibition and event spaces provided to tenants at no additional cost.  The Arts and Education Council provides subsidized facilities and services at the Centene Center to allow arts organizations to apply their resources to expand programming and outreach efforts and make a greater impact in our community.
