Before the founding the House of Culture Celje, which is still strongly connected to the Art Society of Celje, the biggest achievements were the productions such as the musical Beauty and the Beast (2006/2007) and opera The Noblemen of Teharje (Teharski plemiči), written by Benjamin Ipavec. The latter was awarded the bronze Coat–of-Arms of Celje.
A great amount of productions promote the creativity among the young. In the creative and pedagogical sense, society prepares every year singing masterclasses under the famous Croatian soprano Vlatka Oršanić. The school of musical with Slovene baritone Boštjan Korošec also takes place every year.
In autumn 2007 the society has prepared probably the most important international collaboration with the London Royal College of Art. Postgraduate students and professors of college prepared the successful project called Cultured Vandals.
