The Charles A. Melton Arts & Education Center is hosting its 5th annual fundraising gala scheduled for Saturday, November 13, 2021, at 7pm.

For 103 years, the Melton Center has provided necessary and enriching programming and services to the surrounding community. Our offerings range from our ongoing youth development programs that provide tutoring, mentoring, and enrichment for K-8 students from low-income backgrounds to our Basketball Program that supports the physical education and well-being of students and adults in the West Chester, Downingtown, and Coatesville communities.

Every year, our community comes together for an evening of celebration, recognition, and fellowship. Our unGala will be a virtual celebration with entertainment, community awards, speakers, and more. Event proceeds go directly to sustain and grow the Melton Center’s youth and adult community programs. As we know, the impacts of the ongoing pandemic have underlined the direct needs of the individuals the Melton Center directly supports.
