Our ongoing Best Seat in the House Campaign is an effort to restore our vintage Theatre Chairs to their former glory. Sure we could easily replace the chairs with modern plastic style Theatre seats, however we strive to match that Vintage Theatre look. For a $250 donation, you will get your name on a seat AND help sponsor the chair to get a fresh coat of scratch resistant paint professionally done from a Local Auto Body Shop, and more importantly, reupholster the cushions to not only look better, but provide more comfort.

This summer, CM will hold it's first-ever virtual Walk-A-Thon.  Participants can choose their race distance and can accomplish their walk in any way they like - doing it all at once or breaking it down throughout the month.  Participants may also choose to walk, run, bike, or swim their race as they prefer.  Donations are tax-deductible and go towards CM's Emergency Support Fund.

One of the many important missions of the CM Performing Arts Center is to continue educating the next generation in the world of Theatre Arts. The Noel S. Ruiz Scholarship fund honors Noel's legacy as an artist, storyteller, teacher, mentor, and friend. Donations to the fund allow students to continue to study theatre arts by awarding a scholarship to High School Seniors who have met the criteria to receive The Noel S. Ruiz Scholarship and/or children in our CM Little Kids, Kids, Juniors, or Teen program who's family does not have the means to cover tuition costs.
