RISK. CREATE. STRIVE. ACHIEVE. It's not what you're capable of - it's what you're capable of becoming

08/30/2026

Today, the Raue Center wasn't just filled with people...it was filled with Gina. ❤️

The theatre and arts community came together today to celebrate the life of our dear friend, Regina Belt-Daniels, Gina to so many of us.

And her presence could be felt everywhere.

In the laughter that came from stories shared.
In the tears brought on by memories and videos.
In her favorite scene.
In the music and songs that she loved.
And in the countless people whose lives she touched.

Gina was a pillar of the arts community and a fierce believer in the power of the arts to bring people together. She advocated for arts access and opportunity for all, and she believed that every person should have the chance to find their voice, discover their creativity, and experience the magic of the stage. Her love for people, her friends, and even those that she perhaps didn't necessarily personally know (like the strangers in a restaurant she was in), was something that made her such a beautiful and wonderful soul. From all the shows she directed, students she taught, people she met on her travels, articles she wrote for the paper, and everything else she accomplished...her impact stretched far and wide!

Gina was such a tremendous supporter of arts education. In honor of Gina Belt-Daniels, donations are being collected to support scholarships and programming through Raue Center School For The Arts (RCSA). Please consider making a donation in Gina's name. Your gift can help give a student an opportunity to be part of the arts. You can make your donation here: https://www.etix.com/ticket/d/410/raue-center-for-the-arts.jsp or thru the RCSA Linktree

The curtain may have closed on today's celebration, but the impact you made will continue on. You will be missed and never forgotten. ❤️

✨ What a way to end an incredible journey! ✨

Congratulations to the amazing cast, crew, creative team, volunteers, and everyone who helped bring RCSA's The Little Mermaid Jr. to life! We wrapped up our final performance this afternoon with a packed house, and we couldn't have asked for a more magical ending.

Over the past two weekends, these young performers poured their hearts into every moment on the Raue stage. They made us laugh, cheer, and believe in the magic of live theatre. We couldn't be more proud of everything they accomplished.

To our audiences, thank you for filling our theatre with your applause, your energy, and your support. It meant the world to these talented young artists.

Congratulations on a truly unforgettable run! We can't wait to see where your theatrical journeys take you next. Keep dreaming big, keep creating, and keep shining. 🧜‍♀️🐠💙
