Broadway Circle

 

“The arts open your heart and mind to possibilities that are limitless.” - Jacques D’Amboise (1935-2021)

Lundstrum Performing Arts cultivates a love and knowledge of the performing arts so that young people will discover their unique gifts, develop their depth of character and imagine new possibilities for their lives.

Supporters of Lundstrum’s Broadway Circle fuel this mission in a critical way with annual contributions at the $1,000+ level to keep our joyful and rigorous program available to all youth.
