Sharon and Dallas Dort Fund for Kerrytown Concert House

Arts / Culture (A1-99)

All of Washtenaw County

Sharon Peterson Dort and Dallas C. Dort have been longtime supporters of the arts in both the Flint and Ann Arbor communities. Locally, the Kerrytown Concert House has been a particular favorite of the couple. As a musician himself, Dallas can relate to the intimate and accessible acoustic performances and jazz concerts that have enjoyed a loyal following at Kerrytown for several years. The performance venue has experienced leadership transitions in recent years; and the couple recognizes the long-term stability that an endowment can provide for an organization and the strong current message its establishment can send to current and potential supporters.
