ORLANDO, Fla. The Orlando Performing Arts Center (OPAC), a nonprofit corporation, recently relocated to new offices in downtown Orlando. OPAC is now located at 445 South Orange Avenue, across from Orlando City Hall.

"We are very excited to move into our new space,” stated OPAC President and Chairman Jim Pugh.

"The relocation of our office reflects OPAC’s commitment to downtown revitalization and establishes our presence in Central Florida."

Several companies have donated products and services to help establish OPAC’s new office.

The Orlando Performing Arts Center, a 501(C)3 nonprofit corporation, has been charged by the City of Orlando to outline recommendations to build a destination that elevates the arts, provides the best arts education, generates urban renewal, and most importantly, is programmed to be fiscally responsible in construction and operations.
