The Bushnell Center for the Performing Arts

The Bushnell is more than just a building, or a place to “see a show” — it is a vibrant organization that draws upon a rich, 95-year history, while navigating an exciting course for the future. Led by a CEO with an entrepreneurial spirit and great vision, we are constantly looking for new ways to expand the scope of our work, whether it's through dynamic programming, collaborating on a plan to develop our neighborhood or building upon our 32-year-old education program, which reaches 15,000 students in Greater Hartford annually.

As the largest arts organization in Connecticut, The Bushnell is an essential part of the fabric of Hartford, serving as both a cultural beacon and an economic development leader. Our staff embodies this sense of pride and commitment to the community and are encouraged to share new ideas for the betterment of the patron experience, the growth of the institution, and the community we serve.
