donate to the courthouse center for the arts

As a non-profit community arts center, the Courthouse Center for the Arts thrives only on the support and generosity of our patrons, donors, sponsors, and ticket sales to help fund our free children’s programs. Although ticket sales from our concerts account for a small percentage of our operating expenses, your generous donations make it possible for us to provide the many programs and services offered here at the Courthouse. We are always in need of landscaping/plowing & sanding, building maintenance, event planning and teaching, box office volunteers, community outreach assistance, bartenders and ushers for our events, office help, and more. Please consider supporting the Courthouse Center for the Arts by making a donation today. Thank you for supporting the arts!
