The annual Chevron Family Theatre Festival welcomes the community to a day of affordable, high quality family entertainment. The City of Walnut Creek, the Lesher Center for the Arts, the Diablo Regional Arts Association, and San Ramon–based Chevron work closely  to transform the Lesher Center and the street in front of the Center into a day-long festival of fun, arts, and entertainment for families and visitors.

Each year, thousands of adults and children enjoy more than two dozen professional performances in the Lesher Center’s three theaters, in the lobbies, and right outside.  Events outside are free; performances inside the Center’s three theatres are just $5 per person and run 30 - 60 minutes long and are appropriate for all ages.
