Expanding our Vision and our Building
With 15 years on the drawing table and two years of hard work and planning, our face lift is done! After 20 years, our re-purposed building had siding cracking and warping, our six foot ground level marque was falling apart, our entry ramp was not up to code, our ticketing procedures were awkward, and storage was difficult to manage. Changes have already made a lot of our internal functioning go more smoothly and our street appearance now has hopefully added fun to the ambiance of Brigham City.
A big thank-you goes to everyone involved in this journey. We especially thank our generous Anonymous Donor, and the George S. and Dolores Dore' Eccles Foundation and the Larry H. and Gail Miller Family Foundation for significant last dollar building grants. We are also thankful for the generosity of Hansen Motor Company, Ken Kennedy /Edward Jones Financial Advisors, Neal Chambers/ Autoliv IT Dept., and all the people who have come forward with $100- $500 donations- Annette Macfarlane, Brenda Larsen, and more. . . AND the six eagle scouts who helped us with finishing touches like painting new entry areas and refreshing well used older ones.
Thanks also needs to go to all the people, foundations, and organizations that have made our Fine Arts programming possible. This year has been extraordinary, which gives us many things to celebrate and a lot more people to thank. See home page if you would like to go on record as a special "Noteworthy" supporter of our programs and/or this building project. We could still use a few more "noteworthy" donors to help with a few more details.

Help us expand the Fine Arts Center
Join Fine Arts Center in Building the Future, Literally
Now we are headed to big, new plans! ...
Imagine a place where the magic of art, theatre, music, and puppetry come together to inspire young minds and nurture creativity in the heart of our community. That place is The Fine Arts Center, and thanks to a generous donation, we have been gifted the land and building south of our center—a gift that will help us grow and reach even more people.
However, there's an important step we need your help with. The existing building is unsafe, and after much consideration, we've determined it must be removed. But with this challenge comes an incredible opportunity. Plans have been drawn, and we are ready to build an expanded facility that will double the size of The Fine Arts Center!
This new space will house an expanded "World of Puppetry Museum," an art form that has been at the heart of our mission since day one. We'll have more theatre space, complete with a much-needed backstage area, allowing for more performances and community engagement. With additional classrooms, costume storage, and other improvements, this expansion will allow us to serve more students, offer more classes, and provide an even richer experience for everyone who walks through our doors.
But we can't do it alone. We need the help of generous supporters like you to bring this vision to life. By becoming a "Note-Worthy Donor," you'll be investing in a future filled with creativity, learning, and inspiration for generations to come.
Your donation will help us provide the space and resources necessary to continue offering high-quality art, theatre, music, and puppetry experiences to our community. Together, we can make this dream a reality.
Please consider making a donation today and help us grow our creative home—where imagination thrives, and art comes alive!
