In the Fall of 2016, the City of Nashua’s Economic Development Division and a special working group of Alderman and stakeholders in the arts community began working with Webb Management on the development of a Phase II feasibility study for a new Nashua Performing Arts Center (PAC) in Downtown Nashua. The Phase II Feasibility provided a more in-depth look at the viability of the PAC as a follow-up to the Phase I study completed in 2016. Phase I recommended the establishment of a new arts district in Downtown with the centerpiece, a new 500-700 seat performing arts venue. In January 2017 Duncan Webb presented ‘Project Comparisons’ of precedents of other successful community performing arts centers across the US of similar size and cost. The presentation also included a preliminary program and concept plan that included a test fit for the former Alec’s Shoe Store building on Main St. in downtown Nashua. In February, Webb Management presented the ‘Performing Arts Facility Business Plans’ to a diverse group of stakeholders and civic leaders. The final report and recommendations which included detail on the exploration of sites, business models, financial planning and economic impact for the new venue was released in May 2017. In late summer of 2017 a bond request for $15.5 million was proposed to the Board of Aldermen for the construction of a Performing Arts Center predicated off of the recommendations made by Duncan Webb. The request failed to gain the necessary two-thirds majority needed for bonding, but did receive a majority of support by Members of the Board of Aldermen. At the same meeting, a request was made to put a non-binding question on to the November ballot asking Nashua voters if they supported a $15.5 million bond for a Performing Arts Center at 201 Main Street. On October 3rd, 2017, Economic Development Director Timothy Cummings gave a presentation to the Planning and Economic Development Committee to confirm the viability of the proposed performing arts center while addressing concerns voiced in the community. The question received a majority of support by the public and a new bond request was made in January of 2018. The bond was approved in March of 2018. Information on the preliminary program for the PAC’s Main Street site, which can be found on the City’s website at https://www.nashuanh.gov/1142/Performing-Arts-Center-Feasibility-Study The proposal itself anticipates a 500 - 700-seat flexible performance space with supporting program including lobby, ticketing, concessions, dressing rooms, backstage, storage, rehearsal space, classrooms, function room as well as retail and restaurant space. Parking is conveniently provided by two, existing, adjacent parking facilities operated by the City of Nashua. (please see concept plan) The proposed new Performing Arts Center will compliment Nashua’s existing Keefe Auditorium and Court Street Theater by fulfilling the diverse needs of arts and community reinforcing the ‘Arts District’ and providing for Downtown Revitalization, increased Economic Development, enhanced Cultural Tourism, while creating a sense of Civic Pride for greater Nashua.
