DCCA Artists Series Holiday Event
Glenn Miller “In The
Christmas Mood” Sponsored In Memory of Gene Oda
Darke County Center for the Arts recognizes Rodney Oda as a sponsor of
the upcoming Artists Series performance the Glenn Miller Orchestra,
Saturday, December 19th at St. Clair Memorial Hall. The Oda
family is honoring the memory of Gene Oda with a sponsorship of the
upcoming DCCA Holiday Event. “What a wonderful gift to the
community! Rodney Oda’s generosity is inspiring,” said Andrea
Jordan, Executive Director of DCCA. “We appreciate Oda’s long
term support of the arts, and eagerness to give back to our community
while recognizing his father,” she concluded.
The Glenn Miller Orchestra will bring its legendary sound to Henry St.
Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville on Saturday, December 19 with their
holiday program, “In the Christmas Mood.” The second presentation of
Darke County Center for the Arts 2015-2016 Artists Series, the show
will feature the 18-member ensemble playing many of the original Miller
arrangements as well as modern selections performed in the Miller
style. “These musicians do much more than recreate the past,” said DCCA
Artistic Director Keith Rawlins. “They make music that may take
listeners back to another time, but also entertains the socks off us
right now!” he concluded. The sold out concert begins at 8 p.m.
Greenville National Bank is also sponsoring this show. Additionally,
the Ohio Arts Council helped fund this program 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.
Darke County Center for the Arts presents and promotes performing and
fine arts encouraging cultural enrichment in the community, contact the
