Our Anniversary Guest Book

Turning 50 is no small feat (especially when you’re an arts organization!) But in celebration of The Music Center’s 50th Anniversary, we asked some of our email subscribers and generous donors if they’d be kind enough to leave a note in our “digital guestbook” with their own memories of The Music Center and best wishes for our future.  And well, shucks, we were blown away by all the sweet notes, and amazing comments that you all left!

So here it is, our anniversary guest book filled with YOUR memories and comments…

Thank you all so much for your well wishes and making The Music Center a part of YOUR Los Angeles!  If you didn’t get to sign the book,  you can still leave your message for our 50th by clicking here:  SUBMIT YOUR MEMORY

Our 50th Anniversary

With an anniversary comes a history… A history of shows, artists, amazing moments, little memories, date nights, curtain calls, dress rehearsals, standing ovations and so much more.

The Music Center is celebrating its 50th Anniversary on December 6th and 7th.  We have some incredible events lined up for the occasion, including an all-star performance and gala on the 6th, which will highlight all of our resident companies, and the Academy Awards long tenure in our Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, as well as all the extraordinary individuals like Dorothy Chandler, who, with their dedication and contributions, have made the last 50 years possible.

Following that will be a celebratory party inside the Pavilion on December 7th that toasts the future of The Music Center and all the amazing things the next 50 years will no doubt bring.  Tickets and more information on both events are available on our website.

But beyond the celebration, this anniversary is also about the many people who have come to The Music Center over years – The performers, the employees, the patrons and the audiences.  It’s about what this cultural landmark means to THEM, and how the things they’ve seen and experienced at The Music Center have effected their lives and what it means to Los Angeles…
