Growing Our Reach
With the transformation of our existing annex into a state-of-the-art multipurpose performing arts center where students ages 5-18 will learn dancing, acting, and singing, CTA positions itself as a regional arts and culture leader. This campaign expands CTA’s campus to include two new classrooms and a black box theater seating more than 70 patrons.
