The Stroede Center for the Arts continues to bring our community “Entertainment on a Whole New Level!” as we are planning an unforgettable 2025-26 Performance Series. Our 19th season will feature concerts at the Stroede Center for the Arts, Defiance City Parks, and the historic Defiance Community Auditorium. Performances will include Rock-n-Roll tributes, Classical, Faith & Family, Big Band, Commedy and more. We announce our performances in three seasons – Summer, Fall/Winter, and Winter/Spring.
Our Summer Season includes the popular ‘Music in Your Parks’ Series with performances at Triangle, Diehl, and Kingsbury parks and the Defiance College front lawn.
We are thrilled to bring these performances to our community. In the past, many of you have supported The Stroede (DCCC) programming. It is through continued community collaboration and supporters such as you that The Stroede Center has been able to provide enriching and valuable experiences for the people of Defiance. Our hope is that you will consider supporting at some level our 2025-26 Performance Series as we continue to grow the vision and expand cultural experiences for our community.
Please review the enclosed sponsor opportunities. Thank you for your time in considering and please reach out with any questions.
Best Regards,
Jeff and Sarah Tackett, Co-Executive Directors
