DCCA presents
traditional musician Scott Ainslie at Arts Depot
Masterful musician and storyteller Scott Ainslie will sing, play and
tell tales at Union City’s Arts Depot of Thursday, April 20, as part of
Darke County Center for the Arts Coffeehouse Series. “Scott brings the
sounds and history of America alive with his music,” said DCCA Artistic
Director Keith Rawlins. “He’ll play a variety of instruments and sing
traditional songs based in roots music and the blues, as well as share
carefully chosen anecdotes; Syou’ll leave his show feeling better than
when you arrived,” Mr. Rawlins promised. The concert begins at 7 p.m.
DCCA’s Coffeehouse concerts offer high-quality artists performing in an
intimate social atmosphere where food and drink are also available.
DCCA Executive Director Andrea Jordan says that Scott Ainslie is the
sort of performer for whom the coffee house concept was intended.
“Scott is an innate musician who found his calling and never looked
back,” she stated. “He directs his performance to his audience,
maintaining a visceral connection with each listener as he pulls
material from his vast repertoire with ease to state his musical case
while satisfyingly fulfilling expectations; if you enjoy meaningful
music that is also highly entertaining, this is a not-too-be-missed
show,” Ms. Jordan concluded.
DCCA's Coffeehouse Series is sponsored by The Andersons, Inc., EB Real
Estate, Julie and Tom Graber, Eileen and Steve Litchfield, and Rodney
Oda. The Ohio Arts Council helps 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. DCCA membership contributions also help support this show.
Tickets for the concert by Scott Ainslee cost $10, and can be reserved
by contacting DCCA at 937-547-0908 or dcca@centerforarts.net, or
