Goubeauxs, Greenville National Bank sponsor DCCA Artists Series offerings

GREENVILLE – Darke County Center for the Arts recognizes Jim and Enid Goubeaux and Greenville National Bank for their contributions to DCCA Artists Series performances.

The Goubeauxs are Angel members of DCCA and are sponsors of two Artists Series performances including world class pianist Alpin Hong, who will be performing March 8, and The Toledo Symphony Orchestra’s Music of Mozart on May 3. “On behalf of Darke County Center for the Arts, I want to express our appreciation of Jim and Enid Goubeaux and their patronage to the arts in Darke County. The Goubeauxs have been long time supporters of DCCA, and it is with this kind of support that DCCA can continue to present quality arts experiences in our own backyard,” stated Andrea Jordan, DCCA Executive Director. “Jim and Enid’s enthusiasm for the arts truly inspire and encourage our efforts to present a wide variety of high quality performing artists,” shared Keith Rawlins, DCCA Artistic Director.

DCCA also recognizes Greenville National Bank as a sponsor of the Artists Series performance of Alpin Hong. “Greenville National Bank’s sponsorship donation helps make it possible to present high quality performing artists in our hometown at a price that is almost always significantly less than would be paid in a larger metropolitan area,” said Jordan. “We appreciate Greenville National Bank’s support of the arts and their commitment to making these opportunities available and affordable in our community,” she concluded.

DCCA presented concert pianist Alpin Hong at Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville on March 8. The New York Times lauded the artist's “crystalline energy… clear and persuasive ideas… and remarkable breadth” and called Alpin “a pianistic firebrand” in its review of his standing-room only recital debut at Carnegie Hall. Alpin's warm humor and boundless energy combined with his wide-ranging interests and amazing skill at the piano help him connect to people of all ages, experiences, and backgrounds. The concert, part of DCCA's Artists Series, begins at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20.

The Toledo Symphony Orchestra returns to Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall May 3 to present The Music of Mozart. Toledo Symphony Orchestra will guide you on a journey through compositions that express humor, joy, and sorrow with both conviction and mastery. The concert, the final performance of DCCA's 2013-2014 Artists Series, begins at 8 p.m. Tickets are $30.

Tickets for the Artists Series performances can be reserved by contacting DCCA at 547-0908 or purchased at DCCA's office located within Greenville Public Library, as well as online at www.CenterForArts.net. Tickets will also be available at the door prior to the performance.

Greenville Federal and Ami McClurkin also sponsor the Toledo Symphony Orchestra. DCCA performances are presented with additional support from the Ohio Arts Council, which helps fund the programs with state tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence and cultural enrichment for all Ohioans. DCCA also receives operating support from the Harry D. and Esther Stephens Memorial as well as funding from the Ketrow Foundation and Lydia E. Schaurer Memorial Trust Fund.
