Excellent place for a concert. Blues Years Eve was a blast! Hope they do it again next year.

Just had my 2 sons joined Birthday parties here this evening (ages 14 and 16 yrs old). Great communication with Camille with booking as well with any questions I had prior to the party this evening. GREAT process to pay for the rental of the hall. I highly recommend Waterloo Center for the Arts.

Nice exhibits.

This museum/arts center has a rotating art exhibit from visiting artists, as well as an extensive permanent collection of Hatian art. The rotating exhibits are on both floors. It also has a room for hosting plays and another multi-purpose room for hosting various art programs, including large choirs and ballroom dancing. On the two floors are rooms for childrens classes in various arts. Also there is a coffee/tea cafe and a gift shop. A nice place to visit frequently.

Always enjoy visiting here, be it for the art exhibits or for the youth pavilion. Highly reccomend the youth pavilion if looking for something to do with young children

We had so much fun here with my kids 2, 3 and 5 years old. The adults had fun too! There are so many areas and levels of engagement. I really was surprised that something so nice exists in a relatively small city.

This is a fabulous art center. The youth pavilion is so engaging. We have a lot of great art attractions. A source of pride for Waterloo. Also check out the great art classes offered for the children.

Wonderful place to hold an event.. Birthday party or Reception.. Privacy and lots of space

Great local, national and international art displayed. Nice rotation always something new.

A fantastic venue for most any event.

I attended a beautiful wedding and saw some equally beautiful art. Staff was accommodating.

Went to a graduation party in the visual arts room. Nice large room with a river overlook and patio

They are so nice. I love the environment and they have programs for all ages

Enjoyed the art was under construction amazing views of exterior area great for family or just alone time

I dont visit the art collections nearly often enough. Impressed by the Haitian art collection.

Always great exhibits and fantastic events going on here all year long!

Great things to do for adults and kids. Friendly and knowledgable staff. Love the art work.

Good place for pogo raids

The event planner was well- informed and helpful. We look forward to our sons wedding reception.

Very nice place. Went to a wedding party there, very clean...

Beautiful building with good facilities for conducting events. Plenty of parking space as well

My review is based only on taking one class there, wheel throwing, and it has been fantastic. I plan on purchasing lab time once the class is over and continuing to make clay pots and cups and such. Worth every penny to learn something fun and new.

Great venue. Came here for a wedding and have also been here for a musical. Has a nice view of river. The bathrooms are clean and well kept. Great place overall.

Went for Tour deLoo and sampled at Laughing Tree. Great tastes! Plan to get there soon for lunch.

Venue used for open house. No one around to help. No table clothes on tables which I paid for.

O.k, serious review. This is a great place to hang out and do some of the activities and look at art.

Big hall. Plenty of outlets. They offered more than enough tables, chairs, and tablecloths. Very clean. Nice commercial kitchen. Plenty of lightning. The windows and doors face a nice view of the river.

Enjoyed delicious food and tea at the Laughing Tea Tree Cafe ...located inside the Center for Arts. City slow at plowing parking spots and entire lot.

Great place to take your family.

Everything year they have a rock show here. This year was exceptional! The volunteers were knowledgeable and the displays were very interesting. A great place to teach kids about geology.

Love this place. It is great for families

Wonderful! I love this place so much. I wonder with my kids... or just myself.

Great place for the whole family

Great place for events

Largest collection of Haitian Art outside of Haiti. A lot of engaging exhibits, especially for kids at the attached Phelps Youth Pavillion.

Thanks so much for a b great place to take young ones to experience the arts.

I love the Waterloo Center for the Arts. Its a beautiful building thats very inviting to just go and hang out at. I never regret a walk through. They do a great job with programming too

Great place. I dont live in waterloo anymore sure has changed

Beautiful facility with a variety of options for the whole family. Had our wedding reception here in 2009 and it exceeded all of our expectations. Would definitely recommend it to friends and family.

Love all the performances, great for kids

I attended a retirement party at the Waterloo Center for the Arts. It was a wonderful venue for such an event. I recommend taking a tour.

Fine place to visit for the entire family. Great art collection, wonderful river view.

Lovely building great location. Great for parties and large gatherings

What a wonderful event center!

Great place . for Events!

Great hall for a reception fairly priced. Staff very helpful and works with you

We have respectfully waited 2 weeks to hear back from anyone regarding our awful WEDDING experience with the Center for the Arts, but we have not heard a single word from them.We had our wedding on 8/12/17 at the Amphitheater, we booked the space more than a year in advance with Carrie the events coordinator. She had been very helpful and assured us many times that we would not have to do anything except show up and have a good time. Well, Carrie left and we got replaced with Cherie who knows NOTHING about how to coordinate events.I talked on the phone with Cherie twice the week of the wedding, and my husband and I had a meeting with her the week before. We were told MULTIPLE times that the pathways would be barricaded so that public could not walk through our wedding, and that the Splash Pad would be turned off. There were no barricades up, and the Splash Pad was on with at least 15 people playing on the pad that we had to ask to leave. My HUSBAND, GROOMSMAN, and FATHER had to clean up BEER CANS, CIGARETTES, TRASH and VOMIT!! IN THEIR TUXEDOS because the Amphitheater had not been cleaned from the concert the previous day AND put up the barricades themselves.I PAID for the Media Gallery to get ready in with my bridesmaids and honorees, and the DOUBLE BOOKED it with a birthday party, so they upgraded us to a better, bigger space... yeah IN THE BASEMENT of the building. There were spiders, and storage, and it was dimly lit. We had to talk to the front desk FOUR TIMES before we were able to be moved into the room that I PAID for. Then we were told by numerous people that we had to get out of there because there was a birthday party in there that day. We had to ONCE AGAIN, move all of our stuff out of the room before the ceremony even started. Which meant that anything that we needed access to after the ceremony (makeup touch ups, shoes, cellphones, etc) were all scattered between peoples cars and not easily accessible.We had random public strangers walking around before, during, and after the ceremony and had to multiple times tell people to leave because it was a private event.We asked multiple times, to multiple people, who was in charge to get our money back, at least for the nonsense with the Media Gallery, and no one knew who to talk to. No one knew who Cherie was, and they clearly do not communicate with each other.The day was chaos and I am so incredibly thankful that we did NOT have the reception there. It was an awful experience. and I pray that our pictures turn out nicely since none of us were able to touch up makeup or fix anything afterwards because we had no room to go and touch up in.I DO NOT promote doing any events at the Center for the Arts, and I would NOT ever give them your money. They place and staff is chaotic and disrespectful.

A great place to see a show or host an event, Ive attended both and loved it!

Gotta love the local art

Too cramped of a space. Too many people in too small a space

Always enjoyable

They always are having art shows and plays. You can take a variety of classes here as well. Great community place.

I Had my daughters birthday party here and the staff was very friendly and helpful to what we needed that day.

Great conference center.

Its all about the people who are interested in the slower pace and enjoying whats all around you art is everywhere but its showcased here and is always in style

We had a nice time.
