God is the creator of all things visible and invisible; and God created each of us in His image. One aspect of that image is creativity. At Central Presbyterian Church we believe God gave us the ability to be creative, in particular with music and visual arts. Over the years we have sought to celebrate the creative arts with Central Arts.

Central Presbyterian Church of Waxahachie has reimagined our Central Arts Community Concert Series for 2025-2026. Central Arts will present five distinctive programs that the entire family will enjoy! The Dallas based Celtic band, Skyland, will kick off the series on Sunday, September 14 at 5pm. Join us for this rousing, toe-tapping concert.

Our first concert is Sunday, September 14 at 5pm with the Dallas-based progressive Celtic band, SKYLAND. This five-member group is EXCELLENT, highly TALENTED, and FUN for the entire family!

On Sunday, December 21 at 5pm, the Chancel Choir will lead a traditional Festival of Lessons and Carols arranged by Johnathan Willcocks, the son of Sir David Willcocks, who began the tradition at King's College.

Perhaps our most significant project will be on Sunday, March 29 at 5pm (Palm Sunday) when we'll present John Rutter's Requiem with a professional chamber orchestra.

Our fourth program will feature Randy Arey in a very special organ recital celebrating his 25th anniversary as organist at CPC on Sunday, May 17 at 5pm.

The closing concert will be a grand patriotic concert on Sunday, July 5th at 5pm celebrating America's 250th anniversary! The concert will feature The Imperial Brass along with national radio announcer, Steve Cumming, as our narrator.

In the spring of 2024 Central Presbyterian partnered with the Ellis County Youth Art Show to provide a place for teenagers to showcase their visual art. For one week young artists’ works were displayed for the public to come and see.
