The Collierville Arts Council was formed as a fundraising organization to finish the Harrell Performing Arts Theatre.  When the Community Center/Harrell Theatre complex was built in 1984, the theatre was an empty shell.  Within three years, the funds were secured and the theatre opened in 1987.  The focus of the Council was then shifted to underwrite the productions presented at the Harrell Theatre.
