✨ Creed’s Summer of ’99
✨ P!nk’s Summer Carnival
✨ Zach Bryan’s Quittin Time Tour
✨ Teddy Swim’s I’ve Tried Everything but Therapy

The Loos Center for the Arts

The Loos Center for the Arts at The Woodstock Academy is a newly renovated venue, originally built in 1968 under the ownership of Annhurst College, bringing Arts & Culture to the greater CT community. Shortly after the announcement of The Woodstock Academy taking ownership of the space, The Academy received two generous donations; one of which was to create an Art Gallery, known as The Gallery, with the other gift designated to start renovations in the theater. With a “Save a Seat” campaign started, new seating, carpets, and re-painting were introduced to the theater.

In May of 2019, The Woodstock Academy announced that Joan Loos of Pomfret, CT and Naples, FL had made a commitment of historic level, and as a result, The Academy renamed its newly acquired fine arts facility the Loos Center for the Arts. Loos had already established a scholarship in honor of her late husband, August “Gus” Loos who was the long-time owner of Loos & Company, headquartered in Pomfret. The gift used for two purposes. First, it allowed The Academy to update the outdated infrastructure within the facility by replacing the rigging systems, lighting, sound, staging, and more. Second, it established a restricted endowment that directly benefits the programming and capital needs within the facility. The Loos Center for the Arts houses a 1,000-seat theater, The Gallery, a lecture hall, and several classrooms.

Since taking ownership in the summer of 2017, The Academy has made significant improvements through other generous gifts, and has hosted student concerts and musicals, several outside concerts, exhibits in The Gallery, numerous performances presented by both the Performing Arts of Northeast Connecticut and the Three C’s, non-profit meetings, the Woodstock Middle School’s fine arts performances, and multiple conferences.
