Together we will achieve a lasting artistic legacy for future generations to cherish.

Theater cannot exist without an audience, and EPAC cannot survive without the continued goodwill and generosity of supporters like you. Ticket sales cover less than half of our yearly budget; the remaining is dependent on grants, sponsorships, fundraisers, and donations.

Donations are by far the largest portion of that income. Your continued support enables us to continue to provide an unrivaled theatrical experience for citizens of all ages in Lancaster County. Thank you!

You can also make a credit card donation by phone or by mailing your check, payable to EPAC:

EPAC Business Office
P.O. Box 173
Ephrata, PA 17522
or call 717.733.7966, ext. 3

EPAC supports these rights you have as a donor (28 KB PDF) to the theater.

Ephrata Performing Arts Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Your donation is tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law. IRS code 23-2126974.
