The dedication of the new Visual and Performing Arts Center is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 26, in the Film and Video studio of the new building on the west side of campus.
Everyone is invited to join keynote speaker Higher Education Chancellor Glen Johnson, OCCC President Paul Sechrist, and the many other members of college staff in the celebration.
While the new Visual and Performing Arts Center has been in use since the beginning of the spring semester, the official christening of the facility will be a landmark in college history, said Pat Berryhill, executive director of Institutional Advancement.
