The Roger Glass Center for the Arts had its soft opening yesterday and T and I attended the festivities for Dayton's newest arts venue.
GET TOGETHER brought art works from 90 local artists from the Dayton area community to showcase the spirit of this art center. This Center for the Arts is intended to be a gateway to the University of Dayton as well as having everyone "get together" to complement the arts community in general. It's a new landmark for the university and the city.
The arts center also has a Concert Hall and Experimental Theater and performances are scheduled for mid-February.
I'm looking forward to attending performances in Dayton's newest arts building.

| Paul Laurence Dunbar Dialect Playing Cards by Misty Thomas-Trout. I am going to contact the artist to see if she plans on selling the decks of cards. Paul Laurence Dunbar grew up in Dayton, in the same neighborhood as the Wright Brothers and is another one of Dayton's favorite sons. |

| Ancestral Spirit #612 by Willis "Bing" Davis, 2023. An earlier post from this month, homerun of a concert, shows another art work from this artist displayed at the Schuster Center of Performing Arts in downtown Dayton. |
A new arts center is very exciting. Thanks for attending and bringing us the photos. Ancestral Spirit is beautiful and that bottle cap chain is amazing.
ReplyDeleteOh that looks like fun. The University of Dayton, was the first law school that said yes to me, I attended the University of Louisville, in state tuition made a real difference.
