THE CRYSTAL MOUNTAIN CENTER
FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS
The Crystal Mountain Center for the Performing Arts is a nonprofit organization
located in the Jones Theatre in downtown Westcliffe. The Center produces a
full summer season of plays, musical events and theater classes for children
and adults. In Addition, the theater hosts first run movies on the weekends
when other events are not programmed.
The Crystal Mountain Players are the local performing group for the theater.
In addition the theater has a fund raising and marketing group know as the
Friends of the Crystal Mountain Center. The brick structure on which houses
the Jones Theater today, originally was a rootin', tootin' saloon and pool
hall in the 1880's, where town rowdies could hang out and spend the money
they got from mining silver in nearby Silver Cliffe and Rosita.
Groundbreaking is close to hand for Studio 2. Thisfacility will contain
a youth theatre, which will also serve as a rehearsalhall and community room.
Also, the new studio area will house a scene dock andcostume area.
