The Lincoln Theatre is a cultural resource for the greater Skagit County area. We serve as a venue for quality cinema, educational programs, live performing artists, and exhibitions of fine art. We also, on occasion, sponsor or co-sponsor events that we believe to be of interest to our community. In all cases, the Lincoln strives to ensure that your theatre experience is enjoyable and entertaining.

Cinematographers, educators, performing artists, fine artists and others present their programs free of censorship or interference from the Lincoln Theatre. We are not arbiters of taste. Neither do we purport to define the values of our community or its individual citizens. The views and opinions expressed are solely those of the authors, artists, and speakers and do not necessarily reflect or represent the views and opinions held by the Board of Directors, staff, volunteers, or members of the Lincoln Theatre Center Foundation.

We welcome your comments and suggestions. We invite you to join the Lincoln community. Get membership details here.

Arts in Education

The Lincoln Theatre's annual Arts in Education program brings diverse and dynamic programs to families and school children in Skagit County and beyond at affordable admission rates.

As schools continue to cut back on arts programs in the school systems due to state deficits and the general economy, it is more vital than ever that the Lincoln Theatre continue to present these programs to our community.

Our goal has been and remains to keep the school shows affordable (offering free and reduced rates) and assessible (helping to defray transportation costs) to kindergartners through high school.

The admission fees for the quality programming we offer does not come close to paying artist fees or technical needs. It therefore becomes a year round project of the theatre to raise the funds necessary to continue this vital program through development of partnerships in the private, public and business community.

If you would like additional information on the Lincoln's Arts in Education program and how you or your business can participate by helping offset the real and rising expenses associated with the program, please contact the theatre's business office.
