The Community's College
TJC is truly the community's college, providing valuable educational opportunities as well as high-quality arts and entertainment.
Community
Within one city block, you can see a show in our state-of-the-art dome theater, watch our students perform Shakespeare, cheer on our basketball team, and visit the Tyler Museum of Art.
TJC truly is the cultural epicenter of East Texas, and we've had 90 years of history to showcase our talented students. Our student athletes, student performers, and student artists compete on a national stage with the best of what other community colleges and universities have to offer. We also have a collection of some of the best facilities you'll find in East Texas, from our recently renovated Wagstaff Gymnasium, to the Center for Earth and Space Science Education, a complete rebuild of the original Hudnall Planetarium.
TJC's 40-foot dome theater is the crown jewel of the science community in Tyler, with daily shows spanning space travel and Earth sciences.
The Tyler Museum of Art is a privately owned and independently funded art museum with traveling exhibits and incredible artwork on display.
