How to Support the Arts

The Arts in Focus series relies on you to support our work to increase participation in the arts.  Maintaining affordable ticket prices is one of our principal goals.  We believe that attending performing arts events should be accessible and affordable to everyone. The price of an event ticket reflects only a small part of the actual cost of the performance. We look to you and your generous support to bridge the gap. In order to continue award-winning educational activities and excellent entertainment, we need your help.  Please take a moment now to make your contribution.

Why Support The Programs

We will be facilitating a community program featuring Navy Seal and best-selling  author of Lone Survivor, Marcus Luttrell.  Please help us continue to provide the region with affordable, quality arts performances and educational opportunities.
