The Mitchell Arts Centre is a vibrant cultural hub in Stoke-on-Trent, featuring a 317-seat auditorium, dance studio, rehearsal spaces, and event facilities. Opened in 1957 as a tribute to Spitfire designer Reginald Mitchell, MAC has grown into a welcoming space for performance, learning, and community, continuing to inspire through arts, education, and creative opportunities.
