About Us
The Buttonwood Tree’s mission is to uplift, inspire, educate, and enrich lives through artistic and cultural programming. At the same time, we support the creative endeavors of both emerging and established artists.
Based at 9 Pleasant St, Middletown, CT, The Buttonwood Tree is located in the city’s central business district. As a result, we actively help energize the surrounding community through the arts. TBT offers music, art, literature, poetry, and dance programs. In addition, we present contests, classes, online events, open mic sessions, and many partnership presentations.
Moreover, we curate projects from outside the organization and rent space for rehearsals and events. If you would like to get involved in any way, please get in touch with us. Above all, we strive to remain accessible, inclusive, and welcoming to all.
The Buttonwood Tree programs and concerts are brought to you with the help of our generous donors and volunteers, as well as grants from the following organizations:
- CT Humanities
- Community Foundation of Middlesex County
- CT Department of Economic and Community Development
- Middletown Commission on the Arts
