DCCA’s Arts In Education series annually presents outstanding professional performing artists to students in every grade in all local public schools at no cost to the students. Other programs in the series this school year include Kathakaar, The Spinning Storyteller for kindergarten through third grade students, a songwriting workshop with singer/guitarist Jonathon Kingham for high schoolers, and troubadour Lee Murdock presenting the history of the Great Lakes through music for fourth- through sixth-graders. DCCA’s A.I.E. programs are free and open to the public.

The next DCCA Artists Series presentation is The Piano Men: A Tribute to Elton John & Billy Joel on Saturday, March 30, 2019. The Piano Men treats you to all of the excitement that only Billy Joel and Elton John together in concert together can create. All of their hits come alive when performed by Broadway veterans Craig A Meyer and Donnie Kehr, accompanied by amazingly talented backup singers and The Rocket Band of all star musicians.

Darke County Center for the Arts presents and promotes performing and fine arts encouraging cultural enrichment. For more information, or to purchase tickets contact DCCA at (937)547-0908 or www.darkecountyarts.org.
