Give to the Center for the Arts

Situated on Pepperdine's stunning Malibu campus overlooking the Pacific, the Lisa Smith Wengler Center for the Arts presents world-renowned entertainment, programs, and events for the University and surrounding communities. Through theatrical and musical performances, museum exhibitions, and master classes, the center serves as a hub for the arts in Southern California, uniquely connecting professional guest artists with Pepperdine students and patrons.

The facility is comprised of the 450-seat Smothers Theatre, the 118-seat Raitt Recital Hall, the "black box" Helen E. Lindhurst Theatre, and the Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art.

As a member of the Center for the Arts, your support provides arts education, a variety of quality performances, and special programs. Members also enable us to keep the Weisman Museum of Art free and open to the public, provide high-quality master classes and workshops with guest artists, support emerging artists, and maintain our facilities.
