Collins Center for the Arts: A Peek Behind the Curtain
 
Many PVSC members often attend the Collins Center for the Arts to enjoy musicals, dramatic presentations, the opera, Bangor Symphony Orchestra, lectures, and other events. Today we have an opportunity to peek behind the scenes to learn more about what goes into planning and hosting these productions. Danny Williams, CCA’s Executive Director, will give participants a first-hand look into how a season is built and a behind-the-scenes tour of the facility.  Along the way he’ll introduce us to members of the CCA staff and discuss the cultural and artistic importance of the Center to the University and the community at large.
