The Homer Center 4 Arts has enriched our community in so many ways and reached all ages. They sponsor performances ranching from folk (Arlo Guthrie), to classical, to ethnic to comedy. They offer a venue for dance lessons, Irish Step, ballroom, tap and ballet. They present art exhibits of both local and widely known artists, sponsor a book reading club and so much more. There is truly something for every age at the Center 4 Arts.

My husband and I have been to a few performances in Homer and all were very satisfying. Dave Gross, Grada and Arlo Guthrie were all enjoyable as were the refreshments. If I can get my husband to drive me, we'll most likely see another show.

The Center for the Arts has been one of the best thing that has happened to the Cortland, NY area. Not only has it offered quality music and entertainment for area residents, but it has provided a venue for other not-for-profit activities, such as the Loaves and Fishes fund raiser "Empty Bowls". It is a huge plus for this community.

Homer Center For the Arts is one of best things that has happened in the Central NY music scene. It's been wonderful to experience the diversity of music that has come to this venue. The intimate setting creates an incredible energy between the performers and the audience that cannot be surpassed. I feel fortunate to have this great place in my community. Thank you to all who have made the Homer Center for the Arts as vibrant as it is!

The Center for the Arts has been very supportive of young talent in the community. The response from the administration towards our annual piano recital has been very encouraging. The facilities and grand piano are superb and the parents are grateful for the opportunity to have their children perform in a professional environment.

I *love* the Center for the Arts! They offer an incredible array of classes - everything from painting and other traditional arts to various styles of world dance and holistic healing. In addition to the wonderfully diverse classes, the Center features a constantly changing gallery of artwork and hosts many specialized art shows. They also bring world class entertainment to a warm and personal venue. Personally, one of my favorite things about the Center is the wonderful people who run it and they're dedication to art and culture.

I can't say that I've ever had a bad experience with the Center or any of it's staff. But, I imagine that more volunteers would always be appreciated.

The Center For the Arts of Homer is more than a theater to me. In addition to the enjoyable performances, I meet friends old and new during the social sessions before each performance. Also, I get a sincere kick out of the old movies that are shown on many Friday evenings, as well as many of the other functions that go beyond theatrical performance. My thanks to Dan and all involved for keeping this valuable asset in Homer. Bo Dillingham 607-756-1035

Homer Center of the Arts is the greatest. My husband and I have become members after going to concerts from the beginning. Music variety is great. We have seen shows that we normally would not have gone to see, and enjoyed them very much. Music helps to make the world a better place. We have also enjoyed many of the other programs offered at the center. Thanks to the people who started this center.
