An endowment fund established from the trust of Ruth Hart specifically for the benefit of Sydney Laurence Theatre
Ruth Hart was a long-time patron and supporter of the Alaska Center for the Performing Arts and provided for the PAC in her living trust. This endowment fund established from her trust is specifically for the benefit of Sydney Laurence Theater and used by the current resident companies, with the addition of any non-profit, local performing arts companies now existing or which may be formed later in order to make the Sydney Laurence Theater available to as many people as possible and to those who might not otherwise be able to afford to use it.
Alaska Center for the Performing Arts, Inc. is the nonprofit that manages and operates the four-theater performing arts center in downtown Anchorage, Alaska. The organization’s primary goal is to bring audience members and artists together for memorable performances in a friendly, clean, and safe facility. The PAC is home to ten resident companies, bringing over 250,000 patrons wonderful music, dance, theater, and children’s activities each year.
