Count Basie Center for the Arts
The Count Basie Center for the Arts, situated at 99 Monmouth St in Red Bank, NJ, is the premier destination for cultural arts in New Jersey. Committed to fostering inclusive artistic experiences and creative idea exchange, our mission revolves around inspiring, educating, and entertaining our community. As a non-profit organization, we aim to enrich the quality of life for the residents by creating opportunities for active participation in the arts, forging partnerships with local schools, collaborating with like-minded organizations, and contributing to regional economic prosperity.
Our vision for the future is centered on our evolution as a world-class institution for arts education, culture, and the performing arts. We've made significant strides toward this goal through expansion, which doubled our performance space, expanded our educational and cultural offerings, and strengthened our community outreach efforts via innovative partnerships and programs. With an enthusiastic and dedicated team, including our board, leadership, management, and staff, we aim to be a leading voice and advocate for arts education and the performing arts in Monmouth County, while simultaneously making a positive impact on the arts scene at regional, national, and global levels. Join us in our journey as we continue to inspire, educate, and entertain our vibrant community through the power of the arts.
