COMING SOON: Dec 1, 2026
This Giving Tuesday, help us show ECA students that their community believes in them.
PACE supports all five departments with funding for the experiences that a school budget doesn’t always reach. Whether it’s $10 or $100, every gift goes straight to the students on our stage, in our studios and on the page.
This year, we have an amazing opportunity—an anonymous donor has pledged to match 100% of our Giving Tuesday donations. We need your support now more than ever to build upon this generosity to support our students!
HELP KEEP THE ARTS LOUD
Every day at ECA, students in Theatre, Visual Arts, Creative Writing, Music and Dance put their whole hearts into their craft. PACE is the parent group that makes sure they have what they need to do it. Your gift helps cover field trips, materials and the extras that turn a good year into an unforgettable one. Thank you for standing with our young artists.
