Season tickets are now available for the performances and special events of the Carrollton Center for the Arts’ 2024-2025 schedule.
“We have another great season this year,” said Center for the Arts Manager Tim Chapman. “We have three different types of season ticket packages to appeal to a variety of different patrons, but all with affordable pricing.”
Chapman said purchasing season tickets saves 20 percent off the face value of tickets and guarantees seats to sold-out performances. Current season ticket holders can renew, now through July 19. New season tickets sales begin July 22 and end August 9. Individual event ticket sales begin August 12. Center for the Arts membership packages can also be purchased. Season tickets can be ordered by phone at (770) 838-1083, purchased in person at the Center for the Arts at 251 Alabama Street.
