PERSPECTIVES B I T S
• Darke County Center for the Arts is a not-for-profit organization formed in
1978 by a group of five local citizens desiring to expand cultural enrichment
in the community by supporting all of the arts. They were also committed
to the restoration and preservation of Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall.
• DCCA has presented an Artists Series featuring outstanding performing
artists for 40 years. The Family Theatre Series was inaugurated in 1997, and
in cooperation with Greenville City and Darke County schools, Arts In
Education was added to the programming schedule in 1983. In 2002, DCCA
presented its first Missoula Children’s Theatre summer residency,
