Our Story

a common goal…

The Chedabucto Place Performance Centre (CPPC) was officially opened on July 20, 2007. This marked the culmination of the diligent efforts of the volunteer group and the support of the community. On July 24th 2023 it was renamed to the Miles MacDonald Performance Centre. The MMPC stands as an excellent example of people and government agencies working toward a common goal. All levels of government, the Strait Regional School Board, the Guysborough County RDA, and the citizens of Guysborough County as well as many people from outside Guysborough County, supported this project. The MMPC is an important addition to the cultural, educational, and economic assets of our region. The MMPC is operated by the Chedabucto Place Association, under the guidelines of a written use agreement with the Strait Regional School Board.

OUR OBJECTIVES

  • Promote the cultural heritage of Guysborough County, with particular emphasis our founding and diverse cultures.
  • Enhance learning and networking opportunities for students and adults in the performing arts, the visual arts, stage and multi-media production, and cultural entrepreneurship.
  • Provide a performance venue that will attract world class entertainment to our area, as well as provide a venue for local performers to display their talent.
  • Enhance the cultural infrastructure in Eastern Nova Scotia, increasing the area’s attractiveness for both tourists and the local population.

OUR TEAM

The day to day operation of the MMPC is undertaken by the Chedabucto Place Operations Committee on behalf of the Chedabucto Place Association. If you have any questions please let us know using the form below.
