New Jersey Performing Arts Center

Description

2001 Rudy Bruner Award for Urban Excellence - Silver Medal

The New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents world-class performers, promotes local artists, and provides arts education and community space in Newark. An arts complex with a social conscience, NJPAC includes two performances venues, rehearsal spaces, social spaces, special events rental space, and the Lucent Technology Center for Arts Education, which includes classrooms, practice rooms, and performance spaces for students. An outdoor plaza connects the center to the street, and a 1,700-space parking garage and nearby mass transit stations provide easy access to the center.

Open since 1997, NJPAC has been an important engine of cultural and economic renewal in America’s third oldest city. It has helped improve the reputation and image of Newark and contributed to a new sense of community pride.
