After several weeks of pushing for more rehearsal and performance space, the Performing Arts Council, with the help of the Undergraduate Assembly, has been granted use of Stouffer Down Under and the Annenberg Dance Gallery for next semester.
However, the search for space is far from over, as PAC has several long-term goals for additional, more permanent locations.
"This is a big success for the short term," PAC Administrative Coordinator Ryan Baber said. "But of course, for the long term, there's a lot more to be done."
Funding from the Student Activities Council limits how much space PAC can rent, but the two new spots will not cost PAC a penny. Starting in January, the Annenberg Center will allow PAC dance groups to use their studio on a limited basis free of cost, and the office of the Vice Provost for University Life will cover the minimal security costs required for groups to use Stouffer Down Under.
