The Burlington Performing Arts Centre is Coming!

Thank you to all of you, for your names and letters in support of the future Performing Arts Centre in Burlington. PAB received over 776 names and letter of support, which were presented to committee last night. After a very long evening, the Community and Corporate Services Committee of council voted in favour of moving to the detailed design phase of the project. This was the vote we were hoping for. The Burlington Performing Arts Centre is a REALITY! Over 100 people filled the council chambers and seven delegations made their presentations. As was said many times last night this was a momentus occasion. Congratulations to all of you and thank you for speaking up.

If you would like more information about the Burlington Performing Arts Centre, it's available on the City of Burlington website as well as Performing Arts Burlington's website.
