Dr. Gordon and Gordon Orthodontics have been long time supporters of DCCA’s Family Theatre Series and this season will also be helping DCCA to present the a cappella group Six Appeal as part of the Artists Series and Arts in Education Outreach for local junior high school students.

DCCA’s 2017-2018 Artist Series continues with the award-winning a cappella group Six Appeal in concert at Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville on November 4th. From their beginnings singing as a collegiate hobby, the group has evolved to become an in-demand act that performs everywhere from college campuses to state fairs to theaters and classrooms. The group has become known for their vivid musical style, unmatched energy, and playful charm. Their repertoire spans decades and genres, and includes pop, country, classic rock, jazz, rhythm and blues, and more. Tickets for the November 4th Artists Series show by Six Appeal are $20 and student tickets are $10. Tickets can be purchased through the DCCA office 547-0908, located within Greenville Public Library, as well as online at www.CenterForArts.net. If any remain by show time, tickets will also be available at the door prior to the performance.

Six Appeal will also present their educational outreach program for junior high students in four performances at Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall on November 2 and 3; these presentations are free and open to the public. Contact DCCA for more information regarding specific show times which are scheduled in coordination with local schools.

Trough Arts In Education, and in conjunction with local schools, performing artists are taken to each grade of every public school in Darke County, ensuring that children in the community have the opportunity to learn and grow through the arts. “Gordon Orthodontic’s support of children’s programming makes it possible to present professional Family Theatre Series programs at an affordable ticket price, and enables all Darke County public school students to experience a culturally enriching artistic program each year,” stated Andrea Jordan, DCCA Executive Director.

DCCA’s Family Theatre Series is celebrating its 20th season! Presenting three shows each season, the goal of the series is to inspire the imaginations of the young and young at heart, and encourage the expression of creativity.
