Reviews
"Beautiful facility"
"Such a great facility! I have attended many meetings and conferences here and only a couple of student performances. The sound is very full and all of the seats provide for great viewing. I do find it interesting that the restrooms on the far side of the theater have many more stalls than the restrooms on the entrance (from the parking garage side). Just an observation and wondering. I do enjoy seeing student art being displayed. The displays change during the year. So cool!"
"Great space for AISD student performances. I didn't realize the space could host a whole festival as well. Very versatile space, with good parking. I do wish the seats in the actual theatre had more leg room. Update: Still a great space! Enough room for social distancing during COVID-19 surges."
"Very nice auditorium, well mannered staff. Absolutely awesome architectural design inside and out."
"AISD's Performing Arts Center has given my children the unique experience of performing in a professional and beautiful venue for many of their functions. I appreciate that AISD and the city of Austin haven taken the arts to heart with the building of PAC, because it shows the kids that their efforts and dedication to performance are important to us all and we love to see them shine! I'm sure that after performing in this venue, many children have developed a new, or fostered an existing, love for the arts!"
