Proceeds from the Starlight Ball support MPAC’s arts education programs, which serve over 35,000 children and students each year. These include offerings through MPAC’s Performing Arts School, such as The Miracle Project, a theater arts education program for students on the autism spectrum and with other specific needs, “Arts on the Road” programs provided to organizations serving children from low-income families, and Artist-in-Residency programs throughout Morris County and beyond.

Mayo Performing Arts Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that depends on donations to cover operating costs, including funding essential education programs. Your support is vital to these efforts and greatly appreciated!
