2018-2019 BERGENPAC.ORG My Fellow Supporters of the Arts,

The dog days of summer may be over, but things are heating up here at The Bergen Performing Arts Center (bergenPAC) as we share with you our 2018–2019 lineup. From legends with decades of excellence under their belts to stars still on the rise, there is something for everyone.

I know you want to check out who is coming to the stage, but I want to quickly tell you about our Mission as a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization that strives to make the live performing arts and arts education accessible to everyone in our diverse community.

September is an exciting time because school is back in session. The Performing Arts School (“PAS”) at bergenPAC, located down the block from the theater at 1 Depot Square, provides 1,300 students ages 3 to adult with introductory- through preprofessional-level classes in music, dance and theatre. Our chorus ensemble also performs on stage with headliners. In keeping with our Mission, scholarships are available so that no child is ever turned away because of financial hardship.

As schools across the state face budget constraints, beyond bergenPAC, our outreach arm, brings arts education to 124 schools in 79 districts throughout 8 counties. We reached a total of 14,086 students last year with in-school residencies, workshops and assemblies, as well as trips to bergenPAC for our School Time Series. This was the first time many of these students experienced a live professional performance.

Our Arts Access program is lauded by many as the best of its kind in the country. We partner with local organizations that serve segments of the community that would not otherwise be able to attend shows, and we give away up to 200 free tickets to every performance. Arts Access saw spectacular growth in the past year as we gave out approximately 12,000 tickets. It is with great pride that I thank our supporters for making this extraordinary program possible.

We are extremely grateful to our board, staff, sponsors, members and of course, the nearly 1,300,000 patrons who have embraced the spirit of bergenPAC as their own. Your support in keeping bergenPAC as northern New Jersey’s leading nonprofit performing arts and education institution means so much. Stay tuned because we have an exciting announcement coming later this year.

But for now, take a look at our upcoming performances, and I hope to see you around the theater.

Sincerely,

Dominic Roncace President & CEO
