Dedicated to Enriching the Cultural Life of Nantucket

Nantucket Performing Arts Center (NPAC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enriching the cultural life of Nantucket. We aspire to attract exceptional artists to the island while serving as a creative hub that brings people together, inspires creativity, and expands access to the performing arts. We are a home for one-of-a-kind experiences, meaningful connections, and memorable moments together on Nantucket. 

Nantucket has a long-standing and deeply valued arts community, and NPAC is thrilled to be part of that landscape, contributing a space for live performance and culturalengagement that complements other great work happening across the island. Through programming that spans theater, music, comedy, dance, and special events, NPAC brings artists and audiences together year-round and, through partnerships and shared use of the space, serves as a collaborative hub for the island’s creative life.

Support for the summer season helps make this work possible, allowing NPAC to continue building its role as a gathering place for artists, audiences, and the broader Nantucket community throughout the year.
