The Fox Cities Performing Arts Center opened its doors in 2002 after a hugely successful fundraising campaign which saw businesses and the public pull together to raise the $45 million needed to construct the center. Truly a public space in all meanings of the word, today the Center hosts a variety of performing arts events in its two theater as well as other events in its lobby. The Thrivent Financial Hall is its largest theater, seating over 2000 audience members, and hosting touring Broadway productions each year.
