Orchestra music played in the background of the lobby — set up with small intimate tables and candlelight — while people mingled before the main event.

The Arts of Collin County hosted the event Thursday night at Frisco’s Westin Stonebriar Resort where over 120 interested residents listened to a report on the progress of building a world-class arts park and performance hall.
