Grand Opening of DAC's Annex Studio

The Darien Arts Center (DAC) has been inspiring creativity and building community through the arts since 1975. As a nonprofit organization, we offer a wide range of programming in dance, music and visual arts, for all ages and experience levels. Each week, nearly 600 students participate in classes across our departments, with hundreds more joining us for performances, workshops, and community events.

From student showcases to professional performances, seasonal workshops to year-round classes, our events reflect our mission to make the arts accessible, enriching, and exciting for everyone in our community. We invite you to join us at the DAC and experience firsthand the vibrant creativity that’s been thriving here for 50 years and counting.
