Performing Arts Council
The Performing Arts Council is a student organization that provides a wide array of creative opportunities for the entire college community. The PAC fosters individuality, and all of our members are encouraged to discover their artistic voice in a supportive environment. Anyone can become involved with the PAC. Current students, alumni, NSCC staff, faculty and community members are all welcome - with students receiving particular favor.
In addition to producing one main-stage production each semester, PAC sposors ongoing performance arts events on and off-campus. Individual participation can be as simple as attending a PAC sponsored event or as involved as planning a full semester of artistic opportunities.
