A letter from the president and chairman ©Bob Rueckl/Rueckl Studio Susan Stockton, president and Kathi Seifert, chairman Dear friends in the community, As the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center’s 2006/07 season — our most exciting and successful season to date — came to a close, we continued to be amazed, inspired and deeply moved by the enthusiasm the community and region has both for the Center and for the wide variety of artists and performances we strive to bring to northeast Wisconsin. Your Fox Cities Performing Arts Center serves as a gathering place where community members young and old can share an experience that sparks an emotional connection. In this Report to the Community, we review and celebrate some of the memorable events and milestones from our 2006/07 season. The financial support from individuals, businesses and foundations ensures that the Center remains a premier venue for the arts in the region and a nonprofit that continues to fulfill its mission. Thank you to our partners and patrons. We look forward to sharing our upcoming fifth anniversary season with you!

The long sitdown of a production (such as Disney’s The Lion King in 2006/07) has a dramatic impact on the ratio of an average year. Four strong revenue pillars are the base of the Center’s financial plan including earned revenue from ticket sales and concessions, annual contributions that help maintain the state-of-the-art facility and subsidize mission- based events, the Future Fund which will ensure the Center fulfills its mission now and for future generations and a cash reserve that provides money for short-term needs. According to the most recent survey conducted by the Association for Performing Arts Presenters, the national average of contributed income to performing arts centers is 55 percent. The Center’s contributed income in the 2006/07 season was 13 percent. The Center’s Annual Partner campaign, which helps sustain the operations of the Center and funds mission-based activities and events, grew to 703 members in 2006/07.
