Some people seem to really have a knack for being good at everything. But did you know there are buildings like that, too? And there’s one here in West Virginia that truly is a Jedi of multi-functionality, boasting a discovery center, an art museum, a theatre, a concert hall, a planetarium, an event venue, gardens, and more – all under one roof.
In West Virginia's capital city of Charleston, there's a commanding brick building known as the Clay Center for the Arts & Sciences of West Virginia.
Kids love it. Adults love it. Parents and grandparents love it. Teachers love it. Locals love it. Tourists love it.

Part of the draw is that there's always something new to do or see every time you visit, whether it's a new performance to watch in the concert hall or a new exhibit to view in one of the museums or even a new I-MAX to watch on the big screen.
In the Maier Foundation Performance Hall, catch all kinds of shows, from acting troops to famous musicians to symphony orchestras to chart-topping bands.
The Clay Center even doubles as an event venue, and not only can you host big get togethers here, but you definitely should. The wow factor is through the roof!
What are you waiting for? Come see what's new at the Clay Center since the last time you visited (or explore it for the first time, if you've never been).
Museum admission is only $9 for adults and $7.50 for kids. Add on the planetarium for $3 or $4. Performance ticket prices vary.
To learn all about the latest displays, shows, and performances available at the Clay Center, as well as where to find the venue and how to purchase tickets, visit the Clay Center website.
