Millikin University’s Kirkland Fine Arts Center is pleased to announce its 2021-22 Performing Arts Season. For over 50 years, Kirkland Fine Arts Center has been the place to be for live performing arts for Decatur, Ill., and the surrounding area.
This season features a Kirkland Series of high-profile guest artists such as STOMP, alongside collaborations with the Millikin School of Music and School of Theatre & Dance that include the internationally acclaimed Dallas Brass and the romantic musical, “She Loves Me.” This year’s performance season will also see the launch of an eclectic new performance series in Albert Taylor Theatre, as well as the long-anticipated opening of the Virginia Rogers Theatre in Millikin’s Center for Theatre & Dance.
“We’re entering a fine arts season where everything feels different. All that we took for granted in the past now seems fresh, exciting and new,” said Bryan Diver, director of Kirkland Fine Arts Center. “Gathering again for shared experiences, especially in the arts, will be joyful and invigorating for us all.”
Single event ticket sales (excluding Vespers) will be available for purchase starting Tuesday, Aug. 24 for 2021 events and Tuesday, Dec. 7 for 2022 events. Tickets are currently available to purchase for Friends of Kirkland and season tickets. Children’s tickets are just $10 with a paid adult. Kirkland Fine Arts Center has also arranged a free shuttle service through a partnership with Baldwin Shuttle for elderly or disabled patrons who cannot drive themselves to the event.
Tickets can be purchased online, over the phone or in-person at the ticket office between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Tuesday-Friday. Discounted tickets as well as handicap seats are not available online but can be purchased at the ticket office.

“We understand that gathering for live events remains a potential concern, and we will do our best to ensure our audiences are as safe as possible while following our state and local health guidelines,” said Diver. “We ask for your support and understanding as we navigate these fluid conditions.”
