“On behalf of Darke County Center for the Arts, I want to express our
appreciation of Rodney Oda and his patronage to the arts in Darke
County. Oda has been a long time supporter of DCCA, and it’s
mission of providing cultural enrichment and the preservation of St.
Clair Memorial Hall as an important cultural center for the community,”
stated Andrea Jordan, DCCA Executive Director. "Darke County is
fortunate to have a vibrant arts presence, thanks largely to individual
supporters, including Rodney Oda , who help make our community a great
place to live."
A Christmas Carol the beloved tale of redemption and joy will be
performed by the National Touring Company of the North County Center
for the Arts, which has been providing award-winning theater for nearly
30 years. “This production features first class professional actors,
lush costumes, and stunning sets, as well as traditional carols and a
timeless message,” stated DCCA Artistic Director Keith Rawlins. “DCCA
is thrilled to be able to bring this delightful and entertaining show
to our community; A Christmas Carol provides the perfect vehicle to
fill audiences of all ages with the true spirit of the season.”
“What a wonderful gift to the community! Rodney Oda’s generosity
is inspiring,” continued Rawlins, “We appreciate Oda’s long term
support of the arts, and eagerness to give back to our community,” he
concluded.
A Christmas Carol is also sponsored by Greenville National Bank.
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 funding from
the Harry D. and Esther Stephens Memorial, Ketrow Foundation, and Lydia
E. Schaurer Memorial Trust Fund, as well as DCCA memberships.
