At the Carson Center, we’re lucky to bring big-city Broadway magic ✨to our small but mighty town of Paducah. And none of it would be possible without the love and support ❤️ of our amazing donors, members, subscribers, and patrons. Justice Shea and Carolyn have been part of our story from the very beginning—supporting the arts 🎭, showing up for every season, and dancing their way through events like our Season Preview Party (seriously, just look at them!). “I was thrilled when I learned that Paducah was going to have a first-class performing arts center,” says Carolyn. “Why go to Nashville or St. Louis when you can experience top-tier entertainment right here at home?” Through their ongoing support, they remind us that the magic of live theatre is even sweeter when shared with someone you love. 💫 #PaducahCreativeCity #PaducahProud #TheCarsonCenter #SupportTheArts
