My high school daughter has been a volunteer at Arts/West for 2 years now. It is a wonderful place for young people to go as an alternative to hanging around uptown. Athens is a small rural community without a corporate base for non-profits to rely on, our main employer here is Ohio University. What amazes me most about this community center is how much is accomplished with little funding. The director is amazing at working with a WIDE variety of organizations who use the space and rallying the town to contribute for necessary improvements, etc. A former church, the main performance space and the downstairs rooms are in almost constant use 7 days a week. Everyone working at Arts/West seems to embody a can-do philosophy and they encourage and include anyone in our area who has an idea, wants to put on a show or hold a meeting there. Arts/West is one more reason to love Athens, Ohio.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
seeing my child grow and learn from being involved in so many activites there. She is treated with respect and given responsiabilities and therefore rises to the occasion. Her time after school is spent on productive community involvement.
