Exciting
activities take place on a year-round basis at the Rancho’s New Mission
Theater (NMT), a 150-seat live theater with beautifully-landscaped
surroundings. The NMT is a multi-purpose facility hosting art exhibits (curated
by Historian Paul Dentzel); dance and musical concerts; theatrical productions;
school field trips; workshops; conferences; rehearsals; receptions; company
picnics; fund raising events, and more. In addition to a wonderful indoor
space, it boasts expansive covered patios and lawns.
The New
Mission Theater is operated by the MultiCultural Music and Art Foundation of
Northridge (MCMAFN), a tax-exempt organization that is dedicated to music and
art education and the promotion of the performing and visual arts.
For 10
years, MCMAFN has been at the forefront of creating a better understanding and
appreciation of the arts, uplifting the cultural environment in the San
Fernando Valley. From the beginning, we have pursued this goal by conducting
and sponsoring unique and dynamic exhibits and performances.
MCMAFN’s Founder and Creative Director is internationally-known American
Composer/Conductor/Violinist Elisabeth Waldo. Often, attendees are treated to
special concerts featuring her extensive repertoire of Indigenous Music
performed “live” by guest performers.
We hope to
see you at an upcoming event. See for yourself why the Rancho is called "the
Valley’s best-kept secret!”
