King Center Rentals

The Kenneth King Academic and Performing Arts Center is only available for summer season rentals mid-May through mid-August. Once the fall semester begins, the facility returns to its intended purpose of supporting the campus’ Performing Arts departments as instructional, lab, and performance space. To that end, performance and support facilities may not be scheduled by any other programs for use during the fall and spring academic semesters. This includes use by any other on-campus departments, student organizations, or off-campus commercial clients. If you identify a date during our rental season that works for your purposes, please reach out so we can further discuss the details.

Rental Inquiries

Please note: Performance spaces in the King Center are only available as rentals from mid-May through mid-August. Contact us at KCRentals@ahec.edu to discuss your individual needs, or to obtain more information on policies and space availability.
