Harris Center for the Performing Arts Program 2019-2020 Season #1

Welcome!
Welcome, and thank you for visiting the
Harris Center for the Arts.
Last year the Harris Center reached
three significant milestones: the millionth
patron passed through the front doors,
membership grew to over 600 donors,
and annual attendance exceeded 175,000.
The Center’s popularity continues to
soar, and we’re so happy you’re here to
experience why.
Inside this guide, you’ll find notes for
today’s show, and more. Visit page 12
for an update on Folsom Lake College’s
growing theatre program and page 14
to learn about one of the Center’s many
community partners, the Folsom Concert
Association. A calendar of this season’s
events is available on page 60.

about the Center and its programs, we
hope you will consider joining this group
of community leaders whose support
helps to further the Harris Center’s reach
and impact in this region.
Again, thank you for attending today’s
performance. We hope you’ll enjoy this
great show, up close, and return for many

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 arts 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 1 million have attended events at
the Center.
