“As our lights turn back on, the stage is YOURS! YOU allow us to fulfill our mission to strengthen community engagement in the arts through inspiring performances, educational opportunities, and world class venues. YOU help us bring world-class entertainment, provide inclusive education programming, and maintain Dayton’s premier performing arts venues – the Schuster Center, Victoria Theatre, Metropolitan Arts Center (home of The Loft Theatre), and the PNC Arts Annex. As we REBUILD, REOPEN, and REVIVE, your donation ensures that our impact together will be greater than ever!”
