Until midnight tonight, we’re calling on our PAC friends and families to support the Performing Arts Center with a monetary gift through Georgia Southern's annual day of giving, Only for Southern. The University's goal is 1,250 donors by the end of the day, and we are well on our way to meeting this goal.

A gift to the PAC ensures a future of educational programming for our community students, families, and senior living communities. Our ability to build a better future for our students, our University, and our world will be stronger than ever before today, because when we soar together, we soar beyond.
