Blowing Rock’s Hayes Center Hosts Theatre, Music & Movies
By Jeff Eason
The Mariam and Robert Hayes Performing Arts Center in Blowing Rock has become
a perfect addition to the realm of entertainment venues in the High Country since
it first opened in the summer of 2006. Its acoustically perfect 348-seat theatre is
the new home of the Blowing Rock Stage Company and the auditorium also hosts live music events,
children’s theatre events and even a classic film series.
The Hayes Center has also become a must-have location for conventions, meetings of business and arts organizations and the occasional wedding reception. Located on NC Hwy 321 just minutes from downtown Blowing Rock, the majestic stone and rock Hayes Center is a state-of-the-art multi-use performing arts center that is active nearly 365 days a year.
