Lightning, thunder, and torrential rains kept the 5th Anniversary celebration indoors, but spirits were high for all who attended the event Saturday, August 28.  Residents provided a range of activities, from cupcake decoration to scrabble, and the stage was a kaleidoscope of activities: jazzercise, hip hop demonstrations, drum circle, and a youth rock band.  5 @ the Center marked 5 years since the opening of the John and Georgene Arts & Education Pavilion, the section of the Center for the Arts that houses the majority of the 17 resident organizations of the Center.  The Center hosts approximately 100,000 visits per year for activities, exhibits, classes and performances. Plan to join us for 6 @ the Center next year!

Join us at this FREE, community-wide event as we celebrate the 5th anniversary of the Arts & Education Pavilion at the Center. 5 @ the Center is open to the community with activities and performances provided by resident organizations such as Art Association, Dancers’ Workshop, Off Square and many more. Food and beverages will be provided by the Center for the Arts, Teton Coca-Cola and the Boy Scouts of America. This event is supported in part by a grant from the Wyoming Arts Council through funding from the Wyoming State Legislature and the National Endowment for Arts.
