Yuma, Arizona - The Arizona Western College Fine Arts Department is teaming up to present music, theater, and art to the community during The Radio Active Variety Show.
This year’s annual fundraiser for scholarships will include scenes from Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and also feature vocal and band music. In addition to the show, the Art Department will be sharing through creative demonstrations, Graphic Arts will be taking photos, and a silent auction will also be held.
