Crayola Dream-Makers Program 
In 1999 The Arts Center became a Crayola Dream-Makers program site. Over the years, hundreds of educators have attended Crayola Dream-Makers workshops at the Arts Center and integrated the program’s projects into their classroom curriculums, teaching thousands of students yearly. Each March, an exhibition is held in the Arts Center’s Walter Greer Gallery to showcase the student artworks that were created through this program.
