Groos Family Fine Arts Wall of Fame
The Groos Family Fine Arts Wall of Fame came to be in the Spring of 2022. As a permanent fixture of the Hastings Performing Arts Center, it's purpose is to graciously acknowledge individuals and groups for their contributions to the Arts.
Our community is very grateful for the many volunteers, community members, philanthropists, and groups that provide support and countless hours of time to help with our Arts projects and programs in the area. With the support of all who are involved in our community Arts, we are able to help provide the level of education and performance excellence that we now experience for all ages in our greater Hastings area.
