Rich Kriegsman of the Pekin Performing Arts Venue Planning Committee joins Greg and Dan to discuss the ongoing campaign for the Mineral Springs Park Performing Arts Venue.

The proposed center will be called the Steven D. Skinner Performing Arts Venue and is expected to officially break ground during a ceremony on Thursday, May 2 at 10 AM.

Kriegsman notes the inspiration behind the proposed venue, the fundraising process for the campaign, and the impact of Steven D. Skinner to the Pekin arts community.
