Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes of Dayton’s great performing arts community? Now you can experience it first hand–and get the inside scoop–with the Mid-Day Arts Café, a performance and education series for the arts-curious adult.
Now in its second season, Mid-Day Arts Café explores a new topic at noon on the third Tuesday of each month in the Benjamin & Marian Schuster Performing Arts Center’s Mathile Theatre. A collaboration between Victoria Theatre Association and Dayton area arts organizations, each session includes a delicious box lunch provided by Citilites Restaurant & Bar, performances by local arts groups or visiting artists, and an opportunity for you to ask your burning arts questions. This series is a great new way for adults to network with fellow arts lovers, deepen their arts experience in a casual setting and catch up on the latest arts offerings in the Dayton region.
