It’s a New Year at the Valley Cultural Center and we’re happy to say our resolutions are turning into tangible changes for good. As we head into our 35th year, our experience and success has made it possible for VCC to bring in new and better ways of doing just about everything.

Our concerts are the backbone and heartbeat of the VCC, and this summer we will be changing the name of Concerts in the Park to Concerts on the Green. More than a description of the beautiful greenscape that has been home to our Concerts for so many years, our new name reflects our deep commitment to lowering the carbon footprint of our Concerts and Movies in Warner Park.

Starting this summer, the Concerts on the Green programs will be printed on recycled paper, use soy-based inks, and incorporate a chemical free process for plating before it goes to press. We’re also planning a series of “Green Village” events for our Concert season. Held in a separate eco-space in our parking lot, our audience will find a variety of eco-friendly companies that will provide information on how to reduce one’s carbon footprint at work and at home. Each Concert will focus on a different Green technology and special offers will be available to all attendees.
