Become a Supporter of the Arts in Henry County: Help Us Create, Engage, and Inspire!

At the Maumee Valley Civic Theater (MVCT), we are committed to bringing high-quality entertainment to Henry County—but we want to do so much more than just put on a great show. Our mission is to engage our community, foster a love for the arts, and create an environment where creativity can flourish. We believe the arts are a powerful tool for building strong connections, enhancing educational opportunities, and strengthening the fabric of our community.

We have big plans for Henry County, but we need your help to make them a reality. MVCT is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization, and we rely on the support of local businesses, advertisers, and individuals like you—people who understand that the arts are more than just entertainment. The arts provide joy, spark imagination, and give voice to our shared values and experiences. They help us express ourselves, connect with others, and navigate the complexities of life.

Why Support the Arts?
The benefits of the arts go beyond just the enjoyment of a good performance. When you support the arts in Henry County, you’re making an investment in your community’s overall well-being. Here are just a few reasons why the arts matter:

  • Social Benefits: The arts bring people together, creating a sense of shared purpose and community. Whether it’s through attending a play, participating in a workshop, or simply enjoying the works of local artists, the arts help bridge divides and foster empathy and understanding.
  • Educational Benefits: Arts education encourages creativity, problem-solving, and critical thinking. It also provides a safe space for young people to express themselves, building confidence and self-esteem that will carry them throughout their lives.
  • Economic Benefits: A thriving arts community attracts visitors, supports local businesses, and enhances the overall quality of life. The arts are a key driver in the economic health of any community, from job creation to tourism to increased property values.
  • Health Benefits: Studies have shown that participation in the arts can improve mental health, reduce stress, and promote emotional well-being. It provides a powerful outlet for self-expression and reflection.
