Centennial Swing Jazz Band hosts Dance Saturday, March 21, 2020 Centennial Swing, a Jazz Band within the Globe Miami Band group, will present their annual fund-raiser on Saturday, March 21, 2020 at 7:00, in the Cobre Valley Center for the Arts third floor theater and ballroom, downtown Globe. This event is always a great party. Dress is “date night,” but many folks like to dress up in swing-era outfits. The Copper Country Community Players will provide a nohost bar. The entire third floor is open so that guests can dance, nibble on great hors d’oeuvres, and visit with friends. Doors will open at 6:30. Music is from 7:00 to 10:00 Centennial Swing has 18 players and plays a wide repertoire from Big Band, Swing, Latin, Blues and Funk. Our smaller “Little Big Band” will play West Coast Swing numbers by artists such as Sonny Rollins, Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Irving Berlin, Oscar Hammerstein, and Weather Report. The bands include professional players, experienced players and young people new to performing. Centennial Band is a local Non-Profit community musical group that provides opportunity for young and old to rehearse and perform challenging musical literature. The organization has three groups: Concert Band, Centennial Swing, and Little Big Band, and incorporates 35+ community members. The groups have been playing together since 2011. The all-volunteer group is directed by Nolan Frost. Seating is limited, so reserve your tickets soon. Cost is $25 per person. Tickets are available at the Arts Center or by calling 928-424-0884.

2020 Historic Globe Cemetery Tour and Self-guided Building Tour
This year the Downtown Globe Downtown Association, in conjunction with the Copper Cities Community Players from the Cobre Valley Center for the Arts, will be presenting a self-guided tour of buildings in downtown Globe in addition to their ever-popular Globe cemetery tour. Free maps and coupon sheets with deals from local merchants will be available at several downtown businesses including the Center for the Arts. Come early and stroll the historic district, learn some history of our buildings and cash in on deals from local merchants. Then, that evening, enjoy a 90 minute +/- walking tour of a portion of Globe’s oldest cemetery depicting an old West time period gone by. Fun & engaging history for all ages. Tours depart every 10 minutes from the grandstand in front of the Center for the Arts beginning at 5:00 pm. (101 N. Broad). There will be some walk-andtalk tours of buildings leading up to the tour going to the cemetery and the guided cemetery path will be filled with theatre and musical performers. The actors, dressed in period style, depict former residents and tales of the lives they once led. If you have never experienced one of our tours, you are in for a treat! Our shuttles will then escort you back to your starting point. Tickets are $20pp and will be available online via Eventbrite or at the door. Children under the age of 10 are free with paid adult & supervision. Group rates available, please call 480-345-7477. Note: The Cemetery Tour is NOT a ghost & ghoul tour, this is a history tour of the land and time of Globe’s past. We appreciate in advance the respect of our cemetery residents, and where they rest. Please wear comfortable closed toe shoes, prepare for paved-incline walking, and although backlit, bring a flashlight for your evening comfort level. The tour path was originally designed for horse and buggy, but is ADA compliant. We will also have handicapped-only parking available at the cemetery for your convenience.
