Woodruff Arts Center, Performing arts complex in Midtown Atlanta, United States.
The Woodruff Arts Center spans multiple buildings housing the High Museum of Art, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, and Alliance Theatre under one organization.
The center opened in 1968 as Memorial Arts Center to honor 122 Atlanta arts patrons who died in a 1962 plane crash in Paris.
The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, High Museum, and Alliance Theatre present over 1,000 performances and exhibitions throughout the year at this location.
The center includes multiple event spaces, from the grand Symphony Hall to intimate conference rooms, with modern audiovisual equipment and flexible seating arrangements.
Robert W. Woodruff, former Coca-Cola leader, initially funded the center through an anonymous donation that transformed Atlanta's arts landscape.
