SUMMARY:Black by Popular Demand
DESCRIPTION:Dayton Contemporary Dance Company (DCDC) presents BLACK BY POPULAR DEMAND – four powerhouse works that capture the heart of African American culture through movement. From the gospel celebration of In My Father’s House to the civil rights reflection of Martyr’s Road\, from the ancestral rhythms of WAWA ABA to the intimate connections of Call(ing)\, this concert delivers the emotional range and artistic excellence audiences return for again and again. \nThese are the works that make audiences lean forward in their seats\, tap their feet to the beat\, and feel their spirits stirred. Chief Executive & Artistic Director Debbie Blunden-Diggs’ In My Father’s House transforms the Victoria Theatre into a sanctuary with Kirk Franklin’s unforgettable gospel sound. Kevin Ward’s Martyr’s Road honors the unending march for justice through one family’s story. Stafford C. Berry Jr.’s WAWA ABA pulses with neo-traditional African dance and communal energy. Qarrianne Blayr’s The Call(ing) reminds audiences to answer the call — from loved ones\, from purpose\, from community. \nBLACK BY POPULAR DEMAND celebrates Black life\, love\, and liberation through dance that reflects on history\, speaks to the present\, and carries forward a legacy born during the Civil Rights movement. Part of the Dancing in Our Light season\, this concert invites audiences to witness artistry that resonates in the chest\, connects generations\, and reminds us why live performance changes everything. There’s something here for everyone – moments of joy\, reflection\, resilience\, and triumph that leave the theatre buzzing.

SUMMARY:Oregon Stories
DESCRIPTION:OREGON STORIES is a documentary created by John Bognar and John Mays in 2007 chronicling the rollicking history of Dayton’s Historic Oregon District. The doc traces the history of The Oregon District from its beginnings as the city’s first platted neighborhood\, providing housing for workers on the Miami-Erie canal\, through the prosperous 1800’s\, the 1913 flood\, the industrial era\, to the eventual blight of the 1950’s – 60’s.\nOREGON STORIES focuses on the period of renewal in the 1970’s when urban pioneers saved one of Dayton’s most unique neighborhoods. Full of great tales of people who lived it\, OREGON STORIES brings history to life with a rich cast of characters and raises important contemporary questions about the nature of community.\nSunday\, March 1 at 5:00. Tickets are $12.\nThe program will begin with an introduction by filmmakers John Bognar & John Mays\, and audience members can share their own “Oregon Stories” after the film.\nFilm-goers who want to continue the evening can call to make early dinner reservations at Jay’s Restaurant in the former Joseph Kratochwill’s Dayton Corn and Grist Mill which once connected to the Miami- Erie Canal\, now Patterson Boulevard.

SUMMARY:Becoming: 70 Years of Growth\, Expression\, and Possibility
DESCRIPTION:Dayton Metro Library’s newest art exhibit\, Becoming: 70 Years of Growth\, Expression\, and Possibility\, will be on display Sunday\, March 1 – Tuesday\, March 31\, in the Main Library’s The 2nd Floor Gallery. \nBecoming celebrates the artists of United Rehabilitation Services (URS) and the ways creativity serves as a powerful form of communication\, identity\, and connection. \nFor 70 years\, URS has supported children and adults with developmental and acquired disabilities as they grow\, explore independence\, and express who they are. Their artwork reflects a journey of becoming\, not as a fixed destination but an ongoing process shaped by experience\, curiosity\, collaboration\, and self-expression. \nThe exhibit features a wide range of abilities\, styles\, and mediums. Some pieces were created individually\, while others were created collaboratively\, emphasizing the importance of community\, shared effort\, and collective voice. The scale of the work is intentionally varied\, ranging from small\, intimate pieces to large-format installations\, mirroring the diversity of expression within the disability community. \nPresented during Disabilities Awareness Month\, Becoming invites viewers to look beyond labels and assumptions to see creativity\, agency\, and possibility. Each piece tells a story\, not of limitation\, but of growth\, imagination\, and presence. \nFor more information\, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org/Exhibits or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665.

SUMMARY:Uncle Tom’s Cabin: An American Classic?
DESCRIPTION:As part of our Celebrate250! Series marking the 250th anniversary of the United States\, we invite you to explore one of the most influential—and controversial—novels in American history.\nPublished in 1852\, Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe became a literary phenomenon\, selling more copies in the nineteenth century than any book except the Bible. The novel helped shape public opinion in the years leading up to the Civil War. Yet from the moment it appeared\, it sparked debate—and it continues to do so today. \nWhy has this book endured? Why has it divided readers for more than 170 years? \nIn this engaging program\, a guest speaker from the Harriet Beecher Stowe House will guide us through: \n\n\nHow and why Stowe wrote the novel \n\n\nThe iconic characters and unforgettable scenes that captured a nation’s attention \n\n\nThe rise of “Tom shows” and early film adaptations \n\n\nThe evolution of the term “Uncle Tom” \n\n\nThe book’s revival and reinterpretation by feminist critics \n\n\nTogether\, we will consider how Harriet Beecher Stowe’s voice speaks to us now—and what this American classic reveals about the issues we continue to face. \nREGISTRATION REQUIRED\nGeneral Admission: $15 per person \nWe are open to the general public. Our venue is fully accessible with a ramp entrance.

SUMMARY:Member’s Spotlight Exhibition: Elisha Frontz: vernal equinox
DESCRIPTION:Elisha Frontz: vernal equinox March 4 – 28\, 2026 Opening Reception: March 4\, 6 – 8 pm Closing Reception: March 28\, 4 – 6 pm \nElisha Frontz: vernal equinox features recent work by a Dayton-based artist\, musician\, and poet. Working with an interdisciplinary sensibility\, Frontz allows material investigation and musicality to inform one another. Her process balances technical precision with intuitive gesture\, resulting in compositions that feel at once deliberate and emergent. These mixed-media paintings—watercolor on paper combined with sewing patterns\, string\, and brass tacks—celebrate the vernal equinox\, the astronomical beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere. As the sun crosses the celestial equator\, day and night reach near equilibrium\, marking a moment of balance\, transition\, and renewal that resonates through Frontz’s layered materials and luminous palette. All artworks in this exhibition are available for purchase. Please visit the reception desk or speak to a staff member for more information. Proceeds support both the artist and The Contemporary Dayton’s mission to connect artists and audiences through accessible\, engaging contemporary art experiences.
