Friends Of The Burnsville Performing Arts Center

Friends of the Burnsville Performing Arts Center is a not-for-profit (501c3) fund-raising organization established to support the development and ongoing success of the center.  Contributions to FOBPAC from individuals and corporate sponsors are used to support community and non-profit organizations using the BPAC and sponsorships for programming at the venue. 

Friends of BPAC Raised $400,000+
During the construction phase of the BPAC we raised well in excess of $400,000 in cash and in-kind donations from individuals, foundations, and corporations. These funds were used for enhancements to the BPAC; Better Seats, First Class Audio System, Floors and Mirrors in Rehearsal Rooms, Floors in the Black Box Theater, the John and Betty Adamich Box Office and other amenities to make the BPAC an outstanding venue for visual and performing arts and corporate and community events. Recently, the Friends helped the BPAC acquire a 9ft Steinway Concert Grand Piano essential for a fist class concert venue.

FriendsBPAC Provides Financial Support to Community Organizations
With the completion of the BPAC the Friends have refocused their mission to raising funds to support community and non-profit organizations using the BPAC and sponsorships for programming. To date we have provided financial support to the Dakota Valley Symphony, Chameleon Theater Circle, Art and All the Jazz Festival and the Pan Asian Festival. We also sponsored Celtic Crossroads appearance at the BPAC on January 30th, 2011.
