Harris Center: Spring 2019

Welcome!
Welcome, and thank you for visiting
the Harris Center for the Arts.
In addition to program notes for today’s
show, inside this program guide you’ll
find information about the many arts
education programs offered by Folsom
Lake College (page 7) as well as the
college’s Innovation Center makerspace
(page 12). There’s also a spotlight on
some dance academies, one of the many
local arts organizations that perform in
the Center (page 14). Visit page 11 to
learn about Center Gift Cards, Discount
Ticket programs, Group Sales and the
Center’s Perks Card program. To help
you plan ahead, a listing of this season’s
events is available on pages 60 and 61.
Also within are acknowledgements of
some of the cast that help make this all
possible, including our members and
and donors (pages 54-55) and sponsors
(page 57) whose support of the Center
is critical to its success, since ticket
revenues alone simply do not cover all
the costs of providing a world-class
arts center. As you learn more about
the Center and its programs, we hope
you’ll also consider contributing to help
us further expand the reach and impact
of the Harris Center in this community.
Again, thank you for attending today’s
performance. We hope you’ll enjoy this
great show, up close, and return for
many more in the years ahead.

ABOUT THE HARRIS CENTER
The Harris Center for the Arts seeks
to build community and enrich the
lives of people throughout California’s
capital region by providing venues and
opportunities to experience artistic
work, celebrate cultural traditions and
participate in the creative process.
It does this through operation of a $50
million, 80,000 square foot regional arts
center opened in 2011, and an evolving
array of vibrant programs geared for
people of all ages and backgrounds.
Among these,
• Presentations bring artists from
around the world to the Center to
perform and share,
• Partnerships make the Center a home
for local artists and art organizations,
and
• Productions are work created and/or
developed on site.
The Center is home to Folsom Lake
College’s visual and performing arts
instructional offerings, as well as other
life-long learning programs for the
broader community. Audiences of over
one million have attended events at the
Center.
