DCCA Grateful for Harry D. Stephens Memorial Funding
Darke County Center for the Arts is grateful to have been included among the recipients of the Harry D. and Esther Stephens Memorial December, 2010 distribution. According to DCCA Artistic Director Keith Rawlins, “The support of this foundation is very much appreciated and has contributed greatly to our ability to present high quality artistic performances in our rural community. DCCA would not be proudly presenting its 32nd season without the funding they have generously contributed in the last several years,” he concluded.
The donated funds will be used to support all DCCA programming and operating expenses in the 2010-2011 season. Darke County Center for the Arts annually presents an Artists Series, Family Theater Series, and Special Performances at the beautiful, historic St. Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville. Arts In Education programs are made available to every grade of all Greenville City and Darke County public schools. Additionally, the Coffeehouse Series takes artists to various local coffeeshops and cafés.
