The recently completed 2022-23 season marks 20 years of the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center serving as a multicultural gathering place to enhance people’s understanding and enjoyment of life through the performing arts.

The many milestones, records and memories created these past two decades are made possible because of the dedication and support of so many in the community.

Since the beginning, the Community Foundation has cultivated meaningful connections between the Fox Cities P.A.C. and donors, strengthening the community. Through the foundation, 142 funds have supplied more than 700 grants, totaling more than $18 million to further develop cultural and educational center programming, specialized trainings and community education initiatives.

“This year, the Community Vision Fund generously approved a grant of $10,000 toward Cultural Competency Training for staff to further our ability to meet our Inclusion and Belonging Commitment,” says Fox Cities P.A.C.’s Chief Audience Development Officer Doug Tiede. “We are grateful and humbled by the level of community support making this the gathering place for all to engage in inspirational and transformative live experiences.”
