Making Performances More Financially Accessible

The Dayton Performing Arts Alliance is committed to making performances more financially affordable to the greater Dayton community. In a unique partnership with AES Ohio, the DPAA has established a new program for members of the public to purchase seats for $5 per ticket. A range of $5 tickets are now on sale for nearly every DPAA performance on a first-come, first-served basis. They can be purchased online or at the box office.

“In the past, price has been a barrier to some customers who want to experience the opera, ballet, or philharmonic,” said DPAA President and CEO Patrick J. Nugent. “They may be willing to purchase a ticket and enjoy something new if the price to attend is lower.”

“The Dayton Performing Arts Alliance is part of the fabric that makes the Miami Valley a special place, drawing people of all ages to enjoy outstanding opera, ballet, and philharmonic performances,” said Holly Wiggins AES Ohio Director of Community and Corporate Social Responsibility. “The Arts Are for Everyone program opens the door for new families, young and old to explore what DPAA has to offer at an affordable cost. AES Ohio is pleased to be a partner in sharing this unique opportunity.”
