TCAN provides a cultural center to the MetroWest Boston region, where national and emerging artists present performances, literary events, and art exhibitions in an environment that brings together individuals and families, children and seniors.

TCAN’s Firehouse venue defines the ideal performance space for a music concert, a theatre production, lectures, film programs and special functions in the MetroWest area. This historic (c.1875) Summer Street Firehouse building has been carefully restored as a theatre, art gallery and community center with space to accommodate art exhibits and administrative offices. Artists performing at TCAN have included Don McLean, Judy Collins, Paula Poundstone, Christopher Cross, Joan Osborne and hundreds of others.

In the heart of Natick Center Cultural District, the building sits among striking turn-of-the-century architecture and elegant new construction.
