In general, events presented in the theatre must be produced or presented by the 15 local arts groups that have been approved for “User Group” status through an application process that is submitted to the JPAC Board of Directors and agreed to by JPAC’s landlord. Interested non-profit arts groups are encouraged to apply for “Temporary User Group Status” to produce one event at the center. A request for full “User Group” status will be entertained by the board following the event.
Exceptions are often made for non-profit groups that would like to present an arts event as a fundraiser. This can be done by receiving “Temporary User Group Status” from the JPAC Board if a group is interested in hosting an annual event, or by partnering with a current JPAC User Group if the non-profit is interested in a “one time only” event.
