Located approximately 40 minutes northwest of Milwaukee, in the heart of the Kettle Moraine, the Schauer Arts & Activities Center is a performing and visual arts complex located in downtown Hartford, next to the Wisconsin Automotive Museum.

Originally a canning factory, the building was built in 1918.  After extensive renovations, the Schauer Center opened in February 2001, and now boasts the 571-seat Ruth A. Knoll Theater, the Suckow Family Art Gallery, The Lodge and Ante meeting rooms, a catering prep kitchen, rehearsal hall, dance studio, and Pikes Peak banquet room.

Our Vision
The Schauer Center is a vital resource that fosters, supports, and enriches the cultural, educational, and social well being of our regional community.  We are a gathering place where people from all walks of life achieve a sense of belonging and benefit from enjoying and participating in the arts.
