Cultural Services offers a wide range of programs benefiting the residents of Eugene. These include: Hult Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Eugene (with its Silva Concert Hall, Soreng Theater and The Studio), the Cuthbert Amphitheater, and free Summer Concerts in the Parks. Community outreach to local schools (K-12), Lane Community College, University of Oregon, social service agencies and organizations benefit the residents of Eugene. In addition, the Hult Center’s own programming series, Hult Presents, offers discounted tickets to youth, students and seniors. 
  
 

The Cultural Services Advisory Committee (CSAC) advises Cultural Services management on planning, policy, and the Resident Company Program for the Hult Center. CSAC members provide important community representation in Cultural Services planning and serve as citizen advocates for arts and culture in the community.

The Cultural Policy Review is the City's first in more than two decades. The objective is to collaboratively review current conditions, services and gaps and to identify community-supported options that will assist the City Council in defining the City's ongoing role in the arts and culture.
