ABOUT US

Timucua Arts Foundation is a multi-faceted arts and education institution, presenting concerts and festivals, operating the unique and intimate Timucua venue, and delivering education and wellness programming to people of all ages.

Timucua’s distinctive integration of the performing and visual arts has carved a niche for high-level, accessibly-priced programming in an intimate venue.

Our values are rooted in community service, inclusivity, education, excellence, and sustainability

Our core belief The Arts Belong to Everyone is embodied in an expansive performance schedule unique in Central Florida, encompassing internationally-acclaimed jazz artists, indigenous and folkloric music and dance, contemporary classical music, avant-garde improvisation, film, site-specific theater, and more, all while visual artists work live on stage.
