Raymond Arts Associates

The Raymond Arts Associates, formed in 1983, is dedicated to the promotion of Fine and Performing Arts in Raymond and the surrounding communities. Besides theatrical productions, we sponsored an Elementary school art contest to design the "Adopt a Road" sign for the Town of Raymond after adopting Main Street as our road cleanup responsibility. We provide technical assistance and equipment for High School Theatre and Art productions. For over ten years, Raymond Arts has awarded Scholarships to Raymond High School graduates for their work is such areas as journalism, drama, photography and art. We are working with the Riverside Park to design and build an amphitheatre for community use and enjoyment. Our mission is to have fun and serve our community. We always welcome experienced and novices to the group. For more info about RAA, call Bob Gagnon at 895-4030.
