Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza, Performing arts center in Thousand Oaks, United States.
The Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza is a performing arts center with multiple theaters and gallery spaces designed for various types of performances and exhibitions. The main auditorium seats about 1,800 people while a smaller forum theater accommodates around 398, with additional dedicated gallery areas for visual arts throughout the building.
The complex was completed in 1994 according to designs by architect Antoine Predock as part of a larger civic development initiative. The project integrated performance spaces, administrative offices, and public gathering areas into a single contemporary structure.
The center hosts theater productions and art exhibitions throughout the year that reflect the local and broader artistic community. Visitors can move between performance spaces and gallery areas, experiencing both types of cultural expression in one location.
An 850-space parking garage is located directly on the property and can be accessed easily from Thousand Oaks Boulevard via a sloping entrance. This makes arriving and parking straightforward for most visitors attending events or visiting the galleries.
The donor courtyard preserves an original oak tree that was carefully protected and incorporated during construction rather than removed. A pictograph wall on the grounds honors the region's original inhabitants.
