HYLTON PERFORMING
ARTS CENTER

The Hylton Performing Arts Center, located on Mason’s Science and Technology Campus in Manassas, Virginia, boasts 85,000 square feet of beautiful and unique spaces to serve our community. Working together, Prince William County, the City of Manassas, George Mason University, and the Commonwealth of Virginia, along with many generous private donors and local business members within the community, have brought the Hylton Performing Arts Center from a dream to a reality. Now, we embark upon the next phase of the Hylton Center, as we seek to complete a 14,000 square foot Education and Rehearsal Wing, and secure our future with a fully-funded Endowment. Learn more about how you can help support the Hylton Performing Arts Center.

Our Vision

The Hylton Center’s success as the “creative commons” of this dynamic region—presenting world-class performances and creating a welcoming environment of learning and sharing artistic experiences—is made possible through the support of donors. Ticket sales cover just a part of the cost of bringing the magic to the Hylton Center, which means we must rely on the generosity of people like you to ensure the Hylton Center is able to Entertain, Educate and Enrich our community for years to come.
