INSPIRING GENERATIONS THROUGH THE ARTS

Palos Verdes Performing Arts has been a cornerstone of our community for generations, offering memorable performances that inspire, entertain, and unite us all. As we look forward, we need your support to preserve this legacy and enhance our facilities to continue providing unforgettable experiences for years to come. Importantly, your donations also support the youth programs in our community. Our conservatory programs give young artists a safe, encouraging space to explore their creativity, express themselves, and grow both personally and artistically. Through the performing arts, our youth develop confidence, teamwork skills, and a love for learning in an environment that celebrates fun and artistic expression. Your generosity fuels these transformative experiences, helping shape the next generation of artists and leaders.
We recognize and deeply appreciate the generosity that many of you have shown over the years—especially through contributions toward initiatives like our Tile Program and Seat Naming. Your support has helped bring life to our stages and beauty to our spaces. Today, we invite you once again to be part of our journey forward.

This year’s Campaign offers many ways to make a lasting impact.
                  - You can etch your legacy into PVPA history with a Diamond Tile in the Plaza, a Angel Diamond Glass Tile on the Diamond Wall, or a named seat all at                         the Norris Theatre.

Additionally, we've created opportunities to contribute to key facility upgrades:
                  - Air Conditioning Fund – Help us replace our 40-year-old system for the comfort of our audiences and performers.
                  - Lighting Fund – Support essential upgrades to enhance every scene on our stages.
                  - Sound Fund – Ensure crystal-clear acoustics that enrich every performance.
                  - General Fund – Our General Fund sustains the ongoing vitality of PVPA’s mission. Every donation over $500 will be recognized in our programs for a                        full year in gratitude for your continued commitment to the arts.

Together, we can preserve the magic of yesterday while empowering the possibilites of tomorrow. Thank you for considering a gift that will help keep the arts alive in our community.

Angle Tile Plaza Friends Campaign

The Palos Verdes Performing Arts (PVPA) a not for Profit 501c3 TIN 95-3254351 and its Norris Theatre has been a vital arts organization for the Peninsula for 38 years.  From professional theatrical offerings, to rock and roll legends and tribute bands, to chamber orchestra and jazz concerts, to dance acts and magic, we believe PVPA’s  Norris Theatre has created a home for the arts in our community.  PVPA with its three venues – the Norris Theatre, the Harlyne J. Norris Pavilion, and the Conservatory for our youth was built for our community, by our community.  
  
A special person wrote this at the Opening of the Norris Theatre: 

“The opening of the Norris Theatre is not only a tribute to the importance of the arts, but also a reflection of the American tradition of a community meeting its own needs. This splendid Community Theatre stands as a permanent reminder that the quality of life is enhanced by the arts.” – Ronald Reagan 1983

Thank you to the many wonderful patrons who donated to the Save our Theatre Campaign last year.  Your donation helped us through the first part of the Pandemic.
