About The Guilds:

The oldest and largest of all the Support Groups, The Guilds is a thriving network of individuals who are committed to encouraging appreciation and enjoyment of the arts while raising both awareness of and financial support for The Center. Members of The Guilds have seen how the arts can transform lives and inspire the spirit. Within a community as diverse as Orange County, the arts serve to unite us.

The Guilds encompasses eight Area Guilds, each representing a particular region of Orange County. Within each Area Guild are numerous groups, giving each chapter a unique identity. Some groups are based on age, special interests and hobbies. Each chapter's members have ample opportunity to develop close friendships and social contacts.

There are 25 adult chapters that sponsor community events and fundraisers, and a youth chapter located throughout Orange County. Chapters design their own social and fundraising events. Members also have the opportunity to get to know one another behind the scenes and pre-performance events, the annual holiday Toys for Tots drive, the spring fashion show and a valuable leadership conference. Celebrate and support the arts by becoming a member of The Guilds of The Center; it's a great way to become involved in your community and one of the great cultural treasures of Orange County, Segerstrom Center for the Arts.
