“As our organization grows to enhance programs for Rutherford County, we need and want our community to be a part of this exclusive event to raise funds for The Center for the Arts. Support is invaluable as we make plans to grow the Center and learn how we can effectively serve all our patrons and community,” shares Executive Director Regina Ward.
Funds that are raised at the Backstage BASH allow the Center for the Arts to secure rights to produce high-quality shows, hire top-notch directors, teachers, crew, and musicians, as well as continue educating the youth of our community through our Center Stage Academy program (90 financial scholarships were awarded to youth in 2022). The Backstage BASH also helps maintain (and improve) their historic 112-year-old building that so many call home.
