Center for Community Arts Auditorium.
There are lots of reasons why Shadelands Arts Center has become a local favorite. Not only is it a great value for those looking for an affordable venue but it also is one of the largest facilities in the East Bay – accommodating up to 300 – where you can bring your caterer of choice. Another plus is the building itself: the white interior is amenable to virtually any kind of decorating, and the high, open-beamed ceiling gives the space a lofty feel.
