Visiting The River Arts Center
The River Arts Center is attached to the southern end of Sauk Prairie High School, at 105 9th Street in Prairie du Sac, WI - on the corner of 9th Street and Oak Street. Only a short 25 minute drive from Madison, the River Arts Center is a beautiful venue to see a performance or host an event!
When using a GPS navigation system, we recommend entering the address as opposed to searching "River Arts Center", as some systems will confuse "River Arts Center" with "River Arts Inc", which is a different location.
Parking outside of school hours is available in the south lot or staff high school lot. You may disregard the "parking permit required" sign outside of school hours. During school hours, street parking is recommended.
