Top Performing Arts Startups in 2026

Long envisioned as a major international cultural institution in the heart of a revived Lower Manhattan, the Perelman Performing Arts Center (PAC NYC) is the final element and cultural keystone of the 2003 Master Plan developed during Mike Bloomberg’s tenure as mayor for re-building the World Trade Center site after the tragedy on 9/11. PAC NYC will help to redefine Lower Manhattan as a cultural destination and serve as a testament to the power of the arts to inspire and unite us.
