A MOMENT WORTH REMEMBERING 

In 2021, the YMCA of Greater Dayton celebrated our 150th Annual Meeting. In dedication to this occasion, the YMCA of Greater Dayton board commissioned local artist Gary Blevins to create a painting that celebrates the mission, staff, and history of our YMCA’s. To learn more about the making of this painting, watch the video below.

 

“The Board of the YMCA of Greater Dayton is proud to commemorate the 150th anniversary of this great organization with this painting by Gary Blevins. The Y stands true to its mission each and every passing year. May our communities continue to be positively impacted for generations to come.”
