A Place to Convene

Every community needs a Center. This will be a place to learn and share about current events, important community issues, and find commonality; a place to come together.

CENTER FOR GATHERINGS

Promoting Community Discussion

In every community, there is a need for a gathering place, where people can come together, share ideas, and find common ground. A place where important issues can be discussed, and solutions found. A place that is welcoming, inclusive, and supportive of everyone's unique perspectives. The Center will speak directly to these needs.

There is no regional venue suitable for large public gatherings.
Area elected officials have no venue in which to share civic programs and information.
Visiting federal and state leaders have no venue suitable for large VIP presentations.
Regional civic and community organizations have no venue in which to convene meetings and conferences.

Quality of Life & Economic Stimulus

The community will have a central facility in which to gather for important presentations, conferences, special events, and visiting dignitaries.
Regional organizations can hold conferences and large meetings that support their work and increase their prominence.
The Center will become a draw for programs that showcase the region’s unique position in conservation, sustainability, Native American culture, and natural history.

Access To the Arts

Imagine a place that inspires creativity, ignites passion, and fosters growth. A place where artists, influencers, and thought leaders can come together to collaborate, learn, and share their unique perspectives.

Civic Impact

The Center will provide a home for the region’s many professional and volunteer performing arts organizations, and a high-quality venue to attract visiting professional artists. Because of its inter-linked mission with the school districts, visiting artists can be engaged to provide special learning opportunities for students.

Community Resilience

The cost of preparedness is much less than the cost of not being ready. The potential for natural disasters, public health crises, interruptions to utility and communications services, and other adverse events, elevate the need for dedicated facilities.

Economic Engine

Crescent City and Del Norte County will be able to attract teachers, artists, visitors, professionals, and families as a result of the Center's efforts to elevate their visibility and establish them as centers of excellence and opportunity.

Facilities For Arts Education

The Del Norte Center for the Performing Arts will first and foremost be dedicated to supporting the arts education curricula in Del Norte and Curry Counties. Designed to accommodate music, dance, and theater, the Center will provide both rehearsal and performance space, and state-of-the-art technical facilities.
