The Lighthouse Performing Arts Center Shines on Campus

The Lighthouse Performing Arts Center Shines on Campus I

n spite of the pandemic, the Fine Arts department at Westminster managed to safely host numerous events in their brand-new Performing Arts Center (PAC), the Lighthouse, during the 2020-21 school year.

“The ability to shine a light on the amazing God-given talents of our students in a venue like the Lighthouse is such a blessing,” said Donna Underwood, Westminster’s director of fine arts. “The Lighthouse and its many features make it easy for us to showcase our students and to bring glory to God through the arts.”

The PAC features a state-of-the-art auditorium with seating for nearly 650 and provides a top-notch performance environment for Westminster's highly-esteemed, award-winning Fine Arts programs. It also offers classroom space, a two-story lobby to display student artwork, as well as practice and performance space for orchestra, band, choir, theater, dance and more.

We are grateful for the generous support of school families, friends and donors who make facilities like the Lighthouse possible at Westminster.
