The "Rocky Horror Picture Show" is returning to the Cornerstone Center for the Arts this September, along with many classes, workshops and fundraising events.
Cornerstone’s events cover a wide variety of interests, including art, history and dance to provide the chance for as many people as possible to get involved.

This workshop, which will be held at 7:30 p.m. today, isn’t just for children. While the program is designed for children ages 7 and older, adults are encouraged to paint too. A registration fee of $25 is required for anyone who paints, but those who don’t paint do not have to register.
Monthly Dance Club
Each month Cornerstone holds a social dance event for the community. The next scheduled meeting is at 7 p.m. Saturday. For $12, or $7 for students, participants will learn a style of dance for the first hour, and then enjoy open dancing until 10:30 p.m. No pre-registration is required to participate in this event.
