To the editor:
On behalf of the Davie County Arts Council (DCAC) Board, we extend our deepest gratitude to the individuals, agencies, and businesses that have been essential to our mission this year. Your continuing dedication keeps the arts thriving in Davie County.
First, we offer our heartfelt thanks to Sidniee Suggs, who recently stepped down as executive director after 18 years of dedicated service to DCAC. We admire her expertise and passion for all forms of the arts – creative, performing, visual, literary, and more. We celebrate the lasting impact she has made on both DCAC and the people of Davie County and beyond. We wish her nothing but the best in this next chapter of her life and sincerely say, “Thank you, Sidniee.”
We also want to recognize everyone who contributed to making this year’s Youth Arts Month (YAM) open house a record-breaking success. Held on March 13 at the Brock Performing Arts Center, this lively event launched an inspiring student art exhibit that runs through April 14 at the Brock Gallery. Stop by during box office hours(Tuesday–Friday, 11 a.m.–4 p.m.) to see the incredible artwork created by K–5 students from all six Davie County elementary schools.
A special thank you goes to these talented young artists, their families, and their supporters. We are also deeply grateful to our county’s three elementary art teachers, whose dedication and hard work made this exhibition possible. The YAM open house is a perfect example of how DCAC brings people of all ages together to recognize, celebrate, and stimulate the Arts in Davie County.
Additionally, we extend our appreciation to everyone who has attended any of our events or otherwise supported DCAC over the years. A special thank you goes to the Davie County Commissioners, the town of Mocksville, the Davie County and Mocksville Tourism Authorities, and our many sponsors. Your support makes everything we do possible.
As DCAC enters the final quarter of our fiscal year, we’re excited to present the two remaining live performances of our 2024-2025 Season of Applause. Visit us on Facebook or at daviearts.org for details.
Looking forward, we are energized by the many opportunities that lie ahead. We’re developing a strategic plan for the next three to five years, continuing to offer many of the performances and programs you love while introducing fresh, innovative experiences—including events in new and unexpected locations—to make the arts even more accessible and impactful for our community.
So, how well do you know the Davie County Arts Council? Have you attended a live performance at “The Brock” or stopped by the Brock Gallery to see our rotating art exhibits? Did you know DCAC sponsors a photography club for those more comfortable behind a camera than a paintbrush? Do you have artistic talents you’d like to develop, refine, or share with the community, maybe even for a fee? Are there arts-related programs, classes, or activities you’d like to see DCAC offer in Davie County?
DCAC is growing, and we’d love for you to be part of our growth. If you’re passionate about the arts, give us a call at (336) 751-3000 or email daviearts4u@yadtel.net. Let’s talk about how you and DCAC together can help “Bring the Arts Alive in Davie County.”
