UMass Fine Arts Center

The Fine Arts Center relies heavily on earned income from ticket revenue and rentals to underwrite its diverse range of programs. Earned income represents between 60-65% of the season programming budget. The loss of this important revenue stream significantly impacts our ability to employ artists and production personnel during the 20/21 season. The FAC engages over 70,000 individuals in the region annually through 10 programs and five theater and exhibition spaces. This funding allows us to keep the arts central to life both on campus and in the community and the enhanced technological infrastructure will enable us to keep audiences at home engaged and connected with the arts.
