To The Decatur County Arts Council
Our
mission is to improve the quality of life in Decatur County,
by fostering the arts.
The Arts Council will benefits all of us by promoting and expanding the
significant role of arts and culture in our lives. The Council advocate's
for financial support for the arts from public and private funding
sources. Our Council works to help stimulate the quality of life and
improve education throughout the county in artistic and cultural
activities, including but not limited to music, theater, dance, painting,
sculpture, architecture, and allied arts and crafts. The Council works to
also make recommendations concerning appropriate methods to encourage
participation in and appreciation of the arts to meet the needs and
aspirations of the citizens in our county.
To help fund our new Arts Council, plans are under way to present a
monthly Dinner Theater to be located at the Decatur County Civic Center.
The stage has been revitalized and is in great shape to be the host to
theater, comedies, musicals and so much more.
Several fun and exciting
opportunities exist. We are in need of actors, singers, choreographers,
and directors. We need people to help with costumes, set design, lighting,
cooks, waiters and waitresses and so much more. You’ll have a great time
helping to create a new entertainment source for all of us to enjoy. The
Dinner Theater will offer simple meals to be enjoyed while exciting drama
and plays are set to life on the stage.
We are looking for
volunteers and people willing to assist us in making the arts an integral
part of everyday life in Decatur County. You will have the opportunity to
meet with like-minded people to help improve the culture and fine arts
offered to the community.
If you would like to be
a part of this exciting, and fun project, please call us at 731-549-7322
and let us know how you could help. We are open to ideas or suggestions to
help make our new Arts Council a success.
The Decatur County Arts Council is made
