The Center for the Performing Arts at Penn State aims to make the performing arts more affordable for families with the creation of a program. The Arts Engagement Family Program provides discounted tickets to families that meet the eligibility requirement of a household income of $60,000 or less. Program benefits include:

• reduced ticket pricing starting at $10 per ticket for most shows, and no ticket higher than $25;
• family-friendly events and activities; and
• value-added offers from the Center for the Performing Arts and its partners.

Approved families will be able to choose two to six tickets for each event, with a maximum of five events. Tickets are $10 for each event, with the exception of “Our Planet Live in Concert” and “Fiddler on the Roof,” which are $25 each. Visit Arts Engagement Family Program to apply. If you have questions or suggestions regarding the new program, please contact Keith Brainard, customer service supervisor, via email at kab248@psu.edu or by calling 814-865-5011.
