Omnova Series
Concert and Artists Series
This series of live performances continues to set the standard for quality, affordable artistic programming in the area. All productions are performed by regional, national or international artists and touring companies. Most performances take place in Rent Auditorium on the campus of Mississippi University for Women. Tickets may be purchased online, at our office within the Rosenzweig, or at the door the night of the event. In addition, courtesy tickes are included in some levels of CAC membership.
YPAS (Young People's Artist Series)
YPAS was developed by the CAC over 25 years ago to provide live performance programs for pre-school, elementary and middle school children in the Golden Triangle and surrounding area. Musicals, puppetry, dance and various forms of live music have been presented to thousands of students who might not otherwise have this opportunity. The Arts Council provides curriculum-education support through study guides for each performance.
