Centrum is a gathering place for artists and creative thinkers from around the world, students of all ages and backgrounds, and audiences seeking extraordinary cultural enrichment. We're located at Fort Worden State Park, in Port Townsend, WA.
Our mission is to promote creative experiences that change lives. Creativity is our primary resource. We achieve excellence by taking risks and embracing change. We change by actively seeking out, inviting in, listening to, and learning from people of all ages and backgrounds.
Centrum and Fort Worden were created in 1973 in a visionary partnership between the Washington State Arts Commission, and the Washington State Parks Commission, and later Washington's Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
