Supporting the Marion Cultural and Civic Center

                                    The Marion Cultural and Civic Center is a service to the community provided by the City of Marion. In turn, all of the new equipment and additions or updates to existing equipment are provided by donations to MCCC or through the MCCC Foundation which is also sustained by donations.

Contribute to the MCCC Building Fund
The MCCC Building fund was initially founded to raise money for construction of the facility. Now that this great facility is in place, funds raised through the building fund now go to the further development of the resources the building can offer to whoever is using it. The next project that will be executed once the funds have been gathered is the installation of a hydraulic orchestra lift. This Lift would make the orchestra pit at the center a multi-functional part of the performance space.  With the addition of an orchestra lift the pit area can also be used for additional seating on the floor level or it could be used at stage level as an extension of the stage. To help MCCC realize its goal of becoming a further developed performance space you can donate in 1 of 3 ways. Record of any donation over $125 will be engraved and placed on a plaque in the lobby of the Cultural and Civic Center.

• Donate in person at the MCCC office.
