Johnson County Community Foundation Awards Grant to Main Street Players

Share on:

The Johnson County Community Foundation recently awarded a $2500 grant to the Main Street Players to help support their organization and their community outreach programs. The Main Street Players is a local community theatre housed at the Historic SIPP Theater in Paintsville, KY.

“The Johnson County Community Foundation is committed to seeing our community thrive as an economic and artistic hub, and supporting organizations like the Main Street Players matches perfectly with these goals,” said Daffiny Trimble, Johnson County Community Foundation Chair. “The work that the Main Street Players do is so important to our community and our region, and we are thrilled to be able to support these efforts and watch them continue to expand and grow.”

The Main Street Players have spent the last decade bringing quality theatrical productions to the mountains, staging productions of Annie Jr., Seussical The Musical, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy in Wonderland, Clue: The Musical, and many more. Through their educational outreach programs, they host theatre workshops and summer theatre camps. With these opportunities, the community theatre has become an outlet for many people in the region to display their talents and abilities.

The Johnson County Community Foundation is an affiliate of the Foundation for Appalachian Kentucky, and their mission is to support efforts that build long-term capacity towards improving the quality of life in Johnson County, Kentucky. Board members include Daffiny Trimble (Chair), Jerry Price (Vice-Chair), Connie Bayes (Treasurer), Tammy Barker (Secretary), Dewey Bocook, Doug Pugh, and Chris Slone.
