Bill Dwyer News

A generous, anonymous donor has paid the $ 2.3 million debt of Raue Center For The Arts. The $ 2.3 million was the remainder of an original $ 8.8 million debt created when the Raue building was renovated in 2002. The debt, and ongoing maintenance on the 90 - year old historic building was financially prohibitive. Raue Center is grateful for the gift, which will allow the organization to focus on reformatting programs and expanding educational classes for children and adults.
