Civic Hall Performing Arts Center (hereafter CHPAC) is owned and operated by Richmond Community Schools (hereafter RCS). Civic Hall Associates (hereafter CHA), is the community partner of RCS and assisted in the renovation of Civic Hall as a performing arts venue and in coordinating its operation since the reopening in August 1993.
CHPAC serves both RCS and the region of east central Indiana and west central Ohio as a performance venue. Housed within Civic Hall are three classrooms that are used daily for band, choir, and orchestra classes. Additionally, many after school extra-curricular activities take place in the facility. Approximately 150 programs and rehearsals take place in the auditorium annually. Over half of these are school related programs.
