The Performance Arcade Trust
The Performance Arcade brings together visual arts and performance in a specially curated event on Wellington Waterfront.
Wellington
In 2024 we invite you to contribute what you would be willing to pay for a ticket to attend this free, award-winning event. $5, $10, $20--it all helps.
Seeing Reb Fountain live? Getting a personal, participatory tour of the city with a nationally renown performance artist? Share what you would be willing to pay for this experience and help others with fewer means to attend for free.
Every year we make our event as accessible as possible by opening our doors to everyone: passersby, young and old, broke and loaded, art lovers, art loathers, and art agnostics. All are welcome to join us, soak up the atmosphere, and see something new. Please help us to keep welcoming all to our accessible event.
Support our programming by donating a koha of any amount you can: $5, $10, $20, $100, or more.
Donate today and become a part of our 2024 vision.
