This fall Cornerstone Center for the Arts and Scarevania Haunted House have partnered up to scare people while making a difference. The Primetrust Federal Credit Union - Son of Scarevania Haunted House presented by Lifestream Services will open at Cornerstone on Saturday, October 1.

The haunt is a one-of-a-kind maze of terror through nearly 10,000 square feet of Cornerstone’s third floor. Capitalizing on the already ominous former Masonic Lodge, Son of Scarevania will leave people of all ages feeling petrified. The haunt is designed for mature audiences and parental discretion is advised. Son of Scarevania will be open in addition to Scarevania’s current location on Granville Avenue.

The haunt will serve as a new fundraiser for Cornerstone, which provides thousands of youth and adults annually with quality arts education and special events in a historic setting. 

Cornerstone Center for the Arts and Muncie Public Library are excited for another "Bad Art Night." on Thursday, February 16. The two organizations invite you to Cornerstone for an evening of terribly awesome art!

Additional cast members include Haley Nicole Dillon, who plays Columbia in Cornerstone’s Rocky Horror shadow cast, and Blake Mellencamp.

For years, Muncie has been a destination for craft beer aficionados. With four local breweries and some of the state’s best beer bars it only makes sense to take Muncie’s love of good brew to the next level. Cornerstone Center for the Arts is excited to announce a brand new fundraiser for the organization, Muncie Brewfest, on Saturday, April 22. Presented by PrimeTrust Federal Credit Union, this celebration of craft beer will exclusively feature Indiana breweries.

The idea for the Muncie Brewfest stems from the former event, by the same name, organized by Ty Morton in 2009 and 2010. Morton along with Jeff Robinson, Cornerstone’s Director of Community Relations, have worked to transform the previous event into the all-new Muncie Brewfest, which specifically highlights the state’s finest breweries. Additional organizational support comes from Elm Street Brewing Company, Guardian Brewing Company, New Corner Brewing Company, Wolves’ Head Brewing Company, and Twin Archer Brew Pub.

The event will feature craft brew tastings from all four Muncie breweries as well as various breweries from throughout Indiana. Featured breweries include Deer Creek Brewery, Half Moon Restaurant and Brewery, Elm Street Brewing Company, Guardian Brewing Company, New Corner Brewing Company, Round Town Brewery, Triton Brewing Company, and Wolves’ Head Brewing Company with additional breweries to be announced.

Entertainment for the event will include live music from local deejays and musicians. The Hops & Vine Brew Bus will provide rides starting at 5 p.m. continuing throughout Saturday night to all of the Muncie breweries, The Fickle Peach, and The Heorot.

Proceeds from Muncie Brewfest will support Cornerstone’s mission to provide the community with quality arts programming for all. Cornerstone’s arts program serves thousands of people each year with life-enhancing arts education. Many of Cornerstone’s youth and adult students receive some form of financial aid or discount, which is made possible through fundraisers like Muncie Brewfest.

This event is open to ages 21 and older only. VIP tickets are $40 per person and general admission tickets are $25 per person. Limited tickets are available for the event at Cornerstone Center for the Arts, The Fickle Peach, Elm Street Brewing Company, Guardian Brewing Company, New Corner Brewing Company, online, or by calling 765-289-9687.
