Missoula Children's Theatre
The Missoula Children's Theatre (MCT) is an annual production where the TCAC partners with the State Theatre and the Missoula Children's Theatre, Inc. to provide an opportunity for Tehama County children, grades K-12, to audition, rehearse and perform in a full-scale musical. The performances are at the State Theatre for the Arts (in Red Bluff) in the Spring and the production costs $7,000, so sponsors are sought annually.
The next MCT production is scheduled for April 19-24, 2010 and the production will be “Princess and the Pea."
Student Art Contest
The Tehama County Student Art Contest (9th annual in 2009) display occurs the second Saturday in October at the fairgrounds. Grades K-12 provide entries by late September that are judged by the Red Bluff Art Association (a not for profit member of the TCAC) on originality, creativity of theme, quality of work, and adherence to rules. The TCAC provides prizes that are awarded to each of four age divisions.
Volunteers prepare the yearly entry form (which is sent to Tehama County schools and is available at the Chamber of Commerce by August or by contacting the TCAC), rules and theme, pickup and deliver the artwork to be judged, hang and take down the artwork, provide refreshments at the artist’s reception where prizes are awarded, and devote their time to answering questions on the day of the display. This event has had up to 15 elementary and high schools with over 230 students participating. Each year the entry numbers rise as the event becomes more popular.
