A New Partnership
The McCoy Center
Founded in 2008, the McCoy Center was created through a unique partnership between the City of New Albany, Plain Township, New Albany-Plain Local School District, and the New Albany Community Foundation.
Our Mission
To inspire and enrich lives, this center of artistic excellence fosters lifelong learning opportunities and an appreciation of the arts and culture through education, entertainment, participation, and collaboration.
The McCoy Center has also developed unique partnerships with many organizations outside of New Albany. Organizations include Columbus Children’s Theatre, Columbus City Schools, The King Arts Complex, Storytellers of Central Ohio, TransitArts and WOSU; all have enriched New Albany through partnerships and enhanced or benefited from programming presented at the McCoy Center.
As the anchor to the New Albany Learning Community campus, the McCoy Center will continue to serve New Albany students, providing an exciting environment in which to explore and learn from the arts, accentuated by exposure to professional artists whose appearance has been funded by the many generous corporate and individual sponsors from our community.
A shared vision
As part of New Albany’s core value of lifelong learning, community leaders were inspired by a shared vision:
Our Vision: To positively impact the quality of life in New Albany, and the surrounding area, by delivering artistic excellence through entertainment, enrichment, and education.
