Nearly
400,000 visitors converge on Livingston Avenue in downtown New Brunswick
each year. They come to enjoy drama, music, and dance at the State
Theatre, George Street Playhouse, and Crossroads Theatre Company.
Along with the American Repertory Ballet and Rutgers' Mason Gross
School of the Arts, these companies comprise the New Brunswick Cultural
Center.

The New Brunswick
Cultural Center grew from collaboration among New
Brunswick Development Corporation, the City
of New Brunswick, the County
of Middlesex, and the private sector. Emerging from this partnership
was an aggressive plan to purchase and renovate the State Theatre, acquire
and redevelop the former YMCA to provide a new home for George Street
Playhouse, and build the new Crossroads theater, home to America's premiere
African-American repertoire company.
New Brunswick's current
economic vitality owes much to the appreciation of the importance of arts
and culture to the life of a city.
