Music and the Arts at Center Church offers the highest quality music and art, to the Greater Hartford region from a variety of traditions and performers. M&A at Center Church aims to provide opportunities for cultural enrichment, establish and foster relationships with artists and audience members, and encourage all to see Center Church as a place where the many aspects of faith and life – as demonstrated through the arts – can intersect.

All Music and the Arts events are free and open to the public. M&A Events are made possible through monies received from free-will offerings and by the generosity of our donors. If you would like to support Music and the Arts through a donation or sponsorship, please email Bob Gilbert, Center Church’s Director of Music at rgilbert@cchartford.org.
