Explorations Through The Arts

MPAC is where our community comes together to be inspired, enter-tained and uplifted by the passion and power of the performing arts. For over 20 years, we have brought the worlds greatest entertainers to Morristown, provided vibrant arts education experiences for children, and served as an economic engine that drives more than $15 million in annual revenue to the area.

Mayo Performing Arts Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit performing arts orga-nization, presents a wide range of programs that entertain, enrich and educate the diverse population of the region and enhance the economic vitality of Northern New Jersey.

Education & Outreach

In addition to the events you enjoy on our stage, our Education and Outreach programs touch the lives of over 40,000 school age children and their families. This includes performing arts training, original main-stage youth productions, residency programs at area schools, music student recognition programs, in-theatre performances for schools, free programs and concerts, and a touring teen musical group that performs for area non-profits and serve as our ambassadors into the community.

Ticket sales do not cover the cost of all of our programs. We rely on the support of the government, foundations, businesses and individuals to help us fulfill our mission.
