FOUNDATION FOR THE PAC

The Foundation for the Performing Arts Center is thankful to report an incredibly exciting and successful year.

In August, we hosted our Cirque des Artistes Gala and Loading Dock A erparty, which demonstrated the generosity and connectedness of our community. It was a record-breaking event in fundraising and attendance, and we were able to provide a special scholarship to a local young artist, Sarah Hill, who is continuing her passion for dance and joining a professional dance company. It was beautiful to watch Sarah grow over the course of this year.

Our commitment to supporting youth continued through our School Matinee Program. We welcomed roughly 6,500 students back to the PAC in person, a er an unfortunate hiatus due to the pandemic. It was inspiring and joyful to see young children fill Harold J. Miossi Hall once again. The kids connected with world renowned artists and many students came to the PAC for the first time.

Our belief that philanthropy is a cornerstone of community drove our desire to connect with new donors through the creation of our “Crescendo Club.” The Crescendo Club is a monthly giving society that encourages giving by making it a ordable and creates space for donors to gather with other arts supporters socially. It is our intent to honor and celebrate our founders and faithful supporters of the PAC by welcoming new donors and providing information about the history and community collaboration that brought our world class venue to life.

As we look toward the future, we will ensure the sustainability and accessibility of the PAC, while continuing our mission of elevating the arts in our community. We are honored to support the PAC and to contribute to the e ort of thriving local artistry. As we celebrate a full season of incredible performances, we thank each person, business, and winery partner who helped make this year extraordinary.

Thank you for supporting our mission and service to our community through the arts.
