The Friends of Charlotte Performing Arts Center is an organization that supports the educational and community experiences at the Performing Arts Center. Their members are strong advocates for the arts and believe that supporting the arts is a quality of life issue. The members of Friends understand that raising children in a creative environment widens their expectations of what is possible and beautiful in their community and lives.

​Friends has created an endowment fund, supports Arts for Youth programming and helps sponsor special performances.  Our mission is to offer support and assistance in promoting the fine arts in the Charlotte community.
