You have that star quality. You have the potential to make the performing arts shine brightly in the Fort Dodge area.
Unfortunately, the Iowa Central Community College Decker Auditorium is not inspiring the best performances. Decker Auditorium proudly fulfilled its nearly 50-year purpose. Now is the time for our antiquated auditorium to go dark and for a true center for performing arts to take the center-stage light.
Please join us as we Dream Big and Act Now to build a modern, multipurpose center for performing arts for our college, our community and our region. Your star power will inspire students and entertain this region for years to come.
The curtain is going up on our story. We hope you will step forward, hit your spot in the light and deliver a starring role to make this a performance to remember.
HERE’S A CHANCE FOR YOU TO DREAM BIG AND ACT NOW

“Fort Dodge has a long history of outstanding musicians and providing many outstanding musical performances. Our heritage will be sustained with the creation of a Center for Performing Arts at Iowa Central Community College.”
Message from Mary Ludwig
For nearly fifty years, performances at Iowa Central’s Decker Auditorium have entertained our families, friends, and neighbors. Unfortunately, the auditorium does not shine as brightly as it once did.
