Through a joint effort between the Wickenburg Foundation for the Performing Arts (WFPA), a group of local arts supporters, and the Wickenburg Unified School District a professional theatre was constructed in 2000 as an integral part of the Wickenburg High School campus. In recognition of a generous contribution made by the Del E. Webb Foundation, the theatre was honored to assume the name, Del E. Webb Center for the Performing Arts. The WFPA continues to raise funds through grants and donations enabling the Webb Center to remain on the cutting edge of sound and lighting technology and to expand its performance capabilities.
