Check back soon for up and coming events at the Mann Center for Performing Arts.
Corporate Partners is a unique opportunity for companies of all sizes to support The Mann and for individuals at those businesses to get involved personally. Business professionals who love the performing arts, meeting new people, and getting engaged will enjoy membership in Corporate Partners and associated benefits of the program.
Corporate Partners supports The Mann Center’s mission to provide access to the performing arts for all residents of Philadelphia including its children. As part of that mission, over the past 10 years Corporate Partners has provided the leadership to raise over $600,000 for The Mann Center, the Young People's Concert Series and The Mann's other education programs for under-served youth.
Corporate Partners meet monthly to network and work on projects collaboratively. For example, members may choose to participate in…

• Networking events to socialize to make new contacts and friends in the corporate community
