Jefferson’s entertainment calendar is filled throughout the year with everything from big bands, the blues and classical offerings to children’s theater.  The Council for the Performing Arts, a non-profit organization founded in 1977, is dedicated to all professional and amateur arts for community enrichment and entertainment. Jefferson is very fortunate to have the Performing Arts Center — a 1,000-seat auditorium with a 64 by 44 foot proscenium stage and fine light and sound systems, making this facility one of southeastern Wisconsin’s largest community theaters.  The Center is located in Jefferson High School, and the Council shares the stage with a busy school district schedule.  The stage provides the spotlight for professional and amateur musicians, actors and dancers. Area residents have enjoyed great performances from the Glenn Miller Orchestra, the Madison Symphony, Missoula Children’s Theater and the Dutton Family.  More than 15,000 people enjoy these wonderful events every year.
