OXNARD PERFORMING ARTS CENTER CORPORATION

Our 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, the Oxnard Performing Arts Center Corporation (OPAC), was established in 1998 as the administrative, programming, operations/management, and fundraising arm of the Center. We provide cultural and community programming by supporting, producing and presenting theater, dance, music, media/visual arts, residencies, and outside-the-box programs that are of, by and for Oxnard.

We provide a dynamic venue for the community and presents accessible cultural arts experiences that won't be found elsewhere in the City or County. Our cutting-edge events and programs are designed to meet the interests of our residents and visitors - of all ages and backgrounds.

Every year we host a robust season of events featuring local and International as well as emerging and distinguished artists who help make Oxnard a vibrant and enriching place to live and visit. From mainstage acts in the theater and campuswide festivals to intimate lectures and workshops, there is something for everybody at OPAC.

We commission, employ, and support local artists through:

• events and programs
• artist-in-residencies and resident companies
• access to space, equipment and opportunities, and
• collaborations
