About us
Located on Market Street in downtown Harrisburg, Whitaker Center is Central PA’s premier destination for entertainment and education. From hands-on science in our Harsco Science Center, to a premium large format movie experience in Select Medical Digital Cinema, to live performances inside Sunoco Performance Theater there’s always something exciting going on at Whitaker Center! As a non-profit organization, Whitaker Center is not self-sustaining. We rely on donations from those who support first-class learning experiences, inspiring live performances, and amazing films. If you're interested in making an outright or planned gift or a company interested in supporting your community and reaching new patrons, we have a variety of giving options to meet your needs.
