Clay Center For The Arts and Sciences Of West Virginia is a major cultural complex bringing performing arts, visual arts and science together under one roof. The contemporary building covers approximately 240,000 square feet, while its main performance space, the Maier Foundation Performance Hall, offers around 1,850 seats. The center also includes the smaller Walker Theater, a flexible venue for more intimate programs, allowing the complex to host everything from concerts and theatrical productions to educational and cultural events.
The main auditorium is designed for large-scale stage productions and provides a focused theater and concert experience, while the center's other spaces give visitors opportunities to explore additional artistic and scientific attractions before or after an event. Elevators, accessible facilities and on-site food and drink options add to the convenience of a visit.
The Clay Center is located at 1 Clay Square, Charleston, United States. The center's parking lot is directly across from the building on Washington Street, providing convenient access to the main entrance with only a short walk.
