The 8 day “Celebrate The Arts” program got underway last night at the Cochise College Benson Center with a performance by the Cochise College guitar quartet, food prepared by the Benson and St. David high school students in the culinary arts program and the Duane Rilley quartet playing Dixieland and swing music. All events are open to the public and most are free of charge.
