President says two (possibly three) ticketed programs and five free events scheduled for east side of County so far this fall; cultural activities a Community College priority
Among Arizona community colleges, Yavapai has by far the largest and most modern theatre operation in the state in the the Performing Arts Center. Located at the Prescott Campus, most community college have nothing approaching the grandeur of this facility.
So far, the Performing Arts Center has announced it will host from October to the end of May over 30 live in-person events that encompass orchestral concerts, stage plays, and nationally known performers on its Prescott Campus. It will also play host to more than 20 satellite live programs coming mostly from New York and London, England.
In addition to these programs, the Community College will host about nineteen free special events on the Prescott Campus and about five special free events in the Verde Valley..
At the September 14, 2021, meeting of the Yavapai Community College District Governing Board President Rhine announced that there will be at least two live ticketed cultural events in the Verde Valley and at least five free events this fall. (See video below.)
