A $25 million gift from the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation makes a new regional arts center possible in South Jordan. The site sits steps from The Ballpark at America First Square and close to dining and shops.

What’s Planned
Salt Lake County Arts & Culture plans to operate the venue (pending approvals). The team is designing a place that serves small‑ and mid‑sized performing groups and the broader community.
- 800‑seat proscenium theater for live performances.
- Flexible event and rehearsal rooms for community use.
- Visual art gallery and classrooms that support learning and exhibitions.
In short, the center will host performances, classes, and community events under one roof.
Where It Will Be
The center will occupy a three‑acre site in Downtown Daybreak. Specifically, you will find it steps from The Ballpark at America First Square and within an easy walk of restaurants and shops. Consequently, visitors can pair a show with dinner or a game.
Timeline
- Now through 2025: Design and community input, including calls for public art.
- January 2026: Groundbreaking.
- Early 2028: Anticipated opening.
Meanwhile, the County and partners will refine program details and prepare the site.
Who’s Involved
- Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation contributes $25 million toward the project.
- Larry H. Miller Real Estate donates a three‑acre site within Downtown Daybreak.
- Salt Lake County Arts & Culture plans to operate the venue once approvals are in place.
Together, these partners will deliver a cultural anchor for the south‑west valley.
Why It Matters for Daybreak
The arts center strengthens Downtown Daybreak. Moreover, it complements The Ballpark at America First Square and the cinema‑entertainment center. As a result, residents gain more cultural options close to home and, therefore, fewer car trips.
