          Charles Ives Authority for the Performing Arts

               honors the memory of one of America’s greatest music composers and Danbury native,
               Charles Edward Ives (1874–1954), by providing a nationally recognized forum for the
               performing and creative arts. Ives was an American modernist composer and is widely
               regarded as one of the first America composers of international significance. In 2006,
               Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton took steps to create a City Authority to preserve and
               protect the Ives’ founding father’s vision, and the Charles Ives Authority for the Performing
               Arts was born. Recognized for 41 years as an extraordinary entertainment
               destination in Western Connecticut, the Ives Concert Park maintains a passionate, vigorous
               commitment in taking historic steps in advancing cultural enrichment in our region.
