About the event
When our neighbors dream big, our whole community rises.
Buffalo County thrives when everyday people step up with bold visions to serve, heal, entertain, and connect us all. Out of a record-breaking 28 homegrown submissions from across our neighborhoods, 10 local finalists will take the stage at the historic World Theatre to share their passion projects and compete for $8,500 in community-fueled prize funding.
The Center Stage Project is deeply humbled to share this moment with our fellow creators and community builders. Events like this remind us of the power of making "room at the table" for everyone’s voice, talents, and ideas.
