A $7,500 grant from the Arcadia Auditorium Foundation will provide performing arts opportunities for students of all grade levels in the Arcadia Unified School District.
City officials, residents, and School Board members gathered to formulate plans to try once again to get a civic auditorium. In 1965 and 1971 efforts toward this goal fell short.
Meetings have been held recently to study the feasibility of a new effort to get the community behind an auditorium. Representatives at these meetings have been members of the School Board, activists for the city, and ex-mayor Alton Scott.
The committee assigned to make a feasibility study reports the possibility of Arcadia building an auditorium looks bleak and is getting bleaker. Efforts will continue to get major donations started via a grass roots drive and put these aside for a future project.
The prospect of an auditorium for Arcadia brightened some-what with the Federal government's decision to pump $2.9 billion for an individual project such as an auditorium. California is entitled to $285 million and Arcadia may seek up to $4.9 million for an individual project such as an auditorium. Council members, normally opposed to such funds, seemed very excited over the prospects.
By a vote of 3-2, the City Council OK'd seeking Federal funds for the construction of an auditorium. The School Board has already voted to appropriate $4000 of the $6000 needed to update old plans.
Arcadia High School held a drive and collected $800 toward a municipal auditorium. A non-profit corporation is being established and it will be the nucleus for an auditorium drive to begin in September 1977.
A non-profit foundation to work with the citizens of Arcadia in an attempt to construct on auditorium is now complete and in operation. Gives details of how the money will be used in case an auditorium drive is not successful.
A fundraiser will be held on March 4 at the Arcadia High School track beginning at 9:00 A.M. It is billed as a Jog-A-Walk-A-Torium. Entrants will get sponsors to pledge money on the basis of laps completed. Widest participation is hoped for.
