Mission: To foster and serve our community through inclusive programming, cultural and artistic exchange, and developing people-centered spaces.
Our 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, the Oxnard Performing Arts Center Corporation (OPAC), was established in 1998 as the administrative, programming, operations/management, and fundraising arm of the Oxnard Performing Arts & Convention Center. We provide cultural and community programming by supporting, producing and presenting theater, dance, music, media/visual arts, residencies, and outside-the-box programs that are of, by and for Oxnard.
OPAC offers a variety of programs and services, including arts education for local schools, public art projects, and cultural exhibitions like the Mexican Consulate Gallery. They promote art as a tool for wellness and host a variety of community events, from festivals to fundraisers. Additionally, OPAC provides venue rentals for events such as concerts, workshops, and community gatherings, making the arts accessible to all.
