The excitement and support of thousands of community members is making this once in a generation vision a reality. We would like to thank our donors who have invested in the success of this historic restoration and creation of a dynamic performing arts center in Newport, RI.

We're looking to provide the greater Newport area with a unique, sustainable community asset that will provide a dynamic center for culture, the arts, education, and civic interaction while contributing to the positive economic and cultural well-being of our city and region.

Block booking is when multiple organizations work together to schedule a performer's act consecutively on a route. This way, NPAC could host artists that would otherwise not consider a one-off performance in a 700-seat venue.

The stage isn't just for big names! We hope to see indie artists taking to the stage once the theater opens. We're striving for year-round performances!

New year, new estimation! After a value engineering exercise, the overall construction cost is reduced to roughly $10 million without sacrificing the audience and performer experience. We're working with several parties to close this fundraising goal! 💛
