Mission Statement

The purposes of the Lake County Music and Drama Club are: The enjoyment and appreciation of music and drama performances and the provision of scholarships for music and drama students.

A Brief History of the
Music and Drama Club

In 1923, the Music and Drama Club was created by 22 Painesville women. Originally, all members had performance capabilities and most performances were by members. Meetings were held on the Lake Erie College campus. Currently only a few members have performance level skills and most of the six yearly programs are performed by guest artists. Meetings are held at various venues in the Lake County area.

Since 1931 the Music and Drama Club has provided a yearly scholarship to a Lake Erie College student with music or drama interests. In addition, since 1961 the club has given summer music camp scholarships to local high school students, one each to a Fairport Harding student, a Harvey High School student, and a Riverside High School student. These three students attend Lakeland Jazz Camp. Two other awards go to students attending Fine Arts Association summer program, and Rabbit Run summer camp.
