At the Belle Fourche City Council meeting on June 16, 2025 it was proclaimed that on June 28, 2025 that it will be Performing Arts Day in Belle Fourche. This is to celebrate the importance of the performing arts in Belle Fourche and the surrounding area and also BFACT’s 15th Season. Our Executive Director, Derek Olson, and BOD Members Kelsey Gronlund and Wes Barnhouse were able to attend and receive the proclamation. We want to thank Mayor Schmidt and City Administrator LaFayette for their assistance.

Along with that, there will be plenty of treats and activities for families, all in the spirit of celebrating the performing arts.
