Beyond the Box Office

Performing arts centers don't live and die by ticket sales. Many of the most successful PACs and nonprofit venues run on a 40/60 model: roughly 40% ticket revenue, 60% memberships, donations, and programming.

Join us for a live conversation with operators who've built diversified, year-round revenue models, and walk away with practical plays any venue can put into motion — whether you're running a 2,000-seat performing arts center or a 400-cap indie room.

Meet our Panelists:

- Jonathon Crider, Director of External Relations, Fox Tuscon Theatre

- Anne Pinckney Smith, Executive Director, Newberry Opera House

Moderated by: Alec Gaylord, Opendate.
