Sound Bites is a brand new fundraising campaign to replace the Yukon Arts Centre theatre’s antiquated sound system. Although the existing sound system has served the theatre well over the past two decades, new technologies and YAC’s ongoing commitment to its enthusiastic audiences and talented user groups necessitates this vital upgrade. Each year 30,000 people of all ages (including some who come more than once) attend about 170 music, dance, film, theatre, multi-media, spoken word, festivals and other performing arts and cultural events at the Yukon Arts Centre, presented by 40 Yukon and Whitehorse arts organizations. Foundation volunteers have a goal to work with you – our valued community partners – to raise $90,000 towards the purchase of new state-of-the-art audio equipment. We look forward to reaching this milestone and celebrating the sweet sounds of success with you!
