Support Local Performing Arts

Established in 2017, SPOTLIGHT ARTS COLLECTIVE continues to produce diverse theatrical and musical experiences for our community.

The vision of Spotlight includes producing a wide array of performing and fine arts events, expanding past our theatrical roots, for community members of all ages.

In addition to supporting the general operating fund, donations and the creative endeavors of Spotlight raise money for charities, scholarships, and other philanthropic pursuits in the community.

Spotlight Arts Collective is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization #81-5459866
