The Davie County Arts Council extends our sincere gratitude to the Davie County Community Foundation for their generous $10,000 grant in support of our Community Theater Restart initiative. This funding has already made a meaningful impact. With the success of Admission the Play, we have seen firsthand the excitement and support for community theatre’s return. Audiences showed up, volunteers stepped forward, and the energy in the room reminded us all why the arts matter so much in Davie County. This initiative is helping reestablish a vibrant, volunteer-driven theater program that welcomes participants of all ages and experience levels. It creates opportunities for acting, directing, backstage production, choreography, and front-of-house involvement while making theatre accessible right here at home. With plans to produce four to six performances annually, we are looking forward to continued growth and even more opportunities for our community to connect through the arts. The future of community theatre in Davie County is bright, and this grant has played a vital role in making that possible. We are deeply grateful to the Davie County Community Foundation for believing in this vision and investing in the cultural and economic vitality of our community.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to our incredible creative team behind Admission. Your vision, talent, and dedication shaped every moment of this production from the first note to the final curtain.

A lifelong musical theater fan, Daryl never quite found the courage to step into the spotlight. He joined an a cappella group while at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine but avoided solos at all costs. As an adult, he kept a promise to himself by taking piano lessons alongside his son, survived recital nerves, picked up guitar through YouTube, and eventually turned to songwriting. Writing about what he knew best, parenting and the insecurities of growing up, what began as a hobby and a little cheap therapy slowly became a full musical. After a year of writing, he partnered with composer Ben Taylor of Bloomington, Indiana, and together they shaped Admission into a finished work. By day, Daryl serves as Dean of Admissions at the medical school, a role that has only added inspiration to the story. While Broadway might be nice someday, his real dream has always been sharing this show with his family, friends, and community. He is deeply grateful to the Davie County Arts Council for supporting local artists and original works, and for helping bring Admission to life right here at home.

✨ Meet Alyson ✨ Marketing & Communications The arts have always been part of who I am. Growing up with a father who was a photographer and spending years in art school shaped my love for creativity early on. I studied graphic design in college and spent the last five years supporting the Davie County Chamber of Commerce through marketing and branding. I joined the Arts Council in mid November 2025 and have truly enjoyed stepping into this role. Being part of an organization that is revitalizing and building fresh momentum makes the work even more exciting. I love sharing what is happening here and helping connect our community to the creative experiences that make Davie County so special. Davie County has been incredibly welcoming, and I am grateful to play a small part in helping it shine.

Ever wondered how shows run so smoothly? Who welcomes you at the door? Who helps make performances, exhibits, and receptions feel special? It takes a community and we’re building something new.

Meet the Arts Council Staff & it’s Steve’s Birthday! 🎉 Introducing Steve Franke, Executive Director of the Davie County Arts Council. When Steve Franke categorizes his life’s experiences, he uses the word: Enigma. He tells people he’s a simple man: enjoys the simple things in life; and yet as people come to know him, they find he’s lived, and continues living, a multi-dimensional life. A few things about this “simple” man: 25 years as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist; 30 years as Certified Financial Planner, including 10 years as Allegacy Federal Credit Union’s Chief Financial Planning Officer; and then in March 2025 leaned in to fill the gap as Davie County Arts Council’s Executive Director. “We’re stepping into a new chapter at the Arts Council – one built on listening, collaborating, and shared strategies. We’re focused on the view out the windshield (the future) which is huge, instead of in the rearview mirror (the past) which is so small.” We seek your help in building the future at Davie County Arts Council so pop me an email or give me a call to discuss your ideas! 🎂 And yes — it’s his birthday today. Help us wish Steve a happy one!

At just 12 years old, she is already an accomplished artist and young entrepreneur, owning and operating her own 3D printing business, Crazy Prints by Bailey. In addition to her visual art practice, Bailey is a talented pianist who uses music as another form of storytelling. Her continued success in exhibitions, scholarships to Sawtooth Art Academy, and numerous artistic honors highlight her dedication, skill, and growing artistic voice. Second Place 2D Winner: Evelin Gonzalez Salgado Evelin Gonzalez Salgado, a student at South Davie Middle School in Mocksville, North Carolina, is recognized for her thoughtful and exploratory approach to artmaking. She enjoys designing original works that experiment with a variety of materials and techniques.

🎉 Congratulations to Our First Place 2D Winner! 🎉 Please join us in celebrating Chehala Bossart, our First Place 2D Award recipient! Chehala’s work impressed the judges with its strong technical skill, thoughtful composition, and clear artistic voice. Working in pencil and paper, her one point perspective drawing demonstrates a confident understanding of structure and space, while her watercolor piece reflects a personal connection to the desert landscapes she grew up with. Together, these works show both versatility and intention, blending observation, memory, and craftsmanship in a compelling way. A tenth grade student and new to the area, Chehala has been drawing since she could hold a pencil. From creating comics about “Super Fox” in second grade to developing digital art, animation, watercolor, and pencil works today, her artistic journey shows steady growth and curiosity. Whether working on art, animation, theater tech, or color guard, Chehala brings creativity and dedication to everything she does. We are excited to recognize her talent and look forward to seeing how her artistic path continues to unfold. 🌟

🎭 Meet Our Theater Director: Castanya Breen 🎭 Castanya Breen fell in love with theater in the third grade while performing on a church stage in Texas, and she has never looked back. From costuming and performing to teaching and directing, live theater has been a lifelong passion. Now, after moving to Davie County earlier this year, she is bringing that passion to the Brock Performing Arts Center as the director of Admissions, an original musical comedy by Davie County playwright Daryl Rosenbaum. Castanya is excited to be back in the director’s chair and to collaborate with local artists. “I love meeting new people, helping them grow, and watching them entertain others,” she shared. “Live theater feeds off connection and community.” 🎶 Admissions Audition | Davie County Arts Council 📅 Saturday, January 24 ⏰ 10:00 AM 📍 Brock Performing Arts Center, North Main Street, Mocksville This musical comedy features speaking roles for adults and teens, along with a choir, so there is a place for everyone. Auditioners should prepare: • A one-minute solo • A cold reading • A short rhythm exercise Whether you are new to the stage or a seasoned performer, you are welcome here. As Castanya says, community theater is about finding people who care, create, and grow together, and we cannot wait to see that happen on our stage.

🎉 Congratulations to Our First Place 3D Winner! 🎉 Please join us in celebrating Adalie Poplin, our First Place 3D Award recipient at the Dynamic Davie Dimensions Art Show. Adalie’s work immediately stood out for its creativity, craftsmanship, and joyful spirit. Using simple sticks found around her family’s property, she transforms everyday materials into playful “Twig Monsters” that feel fun, friendly, and full of personality. Inspired by her father’s work as a chainsaw carver, Adalie’s art invites viewers to smile, feel curious, and see the potential in the world around them. Her clear artistic vision and thoughtful growth from carving with a Dremel today to dreaming of chainsaw carving in the future made her work especially compelling. A 7th grader at South Davie Middle School, Adalie has already developed an impressive artistic journey. In just seven months, she has built a cohesive body of work, sold pieces online and at local craft shows, and even used her art to support nonprofit organizations and her school band. We are so excited to recognize her talent and can’t wait to see where her creativity takes her next. 🌟 Missed opening night? Give us a call and we’ll schedule a time to open the gallery for anyone who would still like to view the show!
