Donate to UCPAC & Help Us Thrive for Another 95
Ensure the arts are here for you, your family, and friends in the years to come
Union County Performing Arts Center is the place where memories take center stage. Now, as we kick off the UCPAC’s 95th year, we’re diving deep into the nostalgia, weaving together the stories that make this place more than a venue—it’s a living legacy.
Rahway was ranked second on USA Today’s list of the best arts scenes in small towns, Rahway’s got its groove, and the UCPAC has been there for every beat. Entering its 95th year, this historic gem is not just a spot on the map; it’s a landmark listed in both state and national registers. It stands tall as the largest center for the performing arts in Union County, showcasing live music concerts, children’s programming, musicals and plays, classic and independent film presentations, and multicultural events.
The “Crown Jewel” of Union County, UCPAC has been the backdrop for dreams, laughs, and pure inspiration. Home to the Biggest Little Wurlitzer, one of the few theater pipe organs in New Jersey still playing in its original venue, it adds a melody to every memory created within its walls.
A Tapestry of Memories
UCPAC isn’t just a building; it’s a living scrapbook of stories—your stories. Remember that first UCPAC show? The concert that had you dancing in the aisles? A date night seeing a classic 35 mm film that lit up the big screen? UCPAC’s got it all, preserving your special memories like a time capsule waiting to be reopened.
