Since its inception, Cape Fear Community College’s Wilson Center has been committed to being a true community resource. From high school graduations to free-of-charge dance residency performances, the Center has hosted thousands of young people and underserved community members — but that’s only the beginning!

Through the generosity of private donors and a grant program administered by the Arts Council of Wilmington and New Hanover County, the Broadway for a Better World initiative provides free-of-charge tickets to the Wilson Center’s Cape Fear Stage PNC Broadway & Stars Series. The mission of this program is to make the theater experience and all of its associated benefits available to underserved populations, particularly young people under the age of eighteen.

Nonprofit organizations in New Hanover and Pender counties can apply to receive tickets to Wilson Center PNC Broadway or Stars Series performances. The application period begins June 1, 2019 and ends on July 15, 2019.  The grant application is available at capefearstage.com/betterworld. A majority of the tickets granted will go to organizations serving area youth.
