Performing Arts

The Sautee Nacoochee Center has a strong and active performing arts schedule and offers a full yearly billboard of both established, top notch, visiting talent and impressive, polished local talent that always makes us proud. The productions run from link icon drama, and musical theater, to traditional and modern ballet, stand up comedy, and children's theater. Click on the BILLBOARD graphic to view scheduled performances.

When it comes to music we share the best in blues, jazz, local and faraway link icon folk, pop and even classical. Our own Children's Theater, Dance Groups, Shubert Alley in the Valley and Valley Harmony Radio Show give community members a chance to strut their stuff. Whether you're on the stage or in the audience you'll have a great time.

Discovery Tours

They begin at 1 p.m. in the Folk Pottery Museum of Northeast Georgia, where tour guides conduct a 45-minute tour of the Museum. The informal "front porch" style discussion is designed to unearth the unique talents of artists from the Appalachian Foothills of Georgia while focusing on the Museum's current exhibit.

After that, the tour becomes self-guided. Visit the Gallery Shops in the Cultural Center to view a wide array of original, one-of-a-kind art by 200+ local artists. Gallery volunteers are available to answer questions and assist with sales. Then explore the Nacoochee History Museum, the African American Heritage Site, the Native Peace Garden, or enjoy a walk on half-mile footpath that encircles the campus.
