Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center

Our Community

Support WHBPAC

Founded in 1997, Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center is the premiere performing arts organization on Long Island’s East End. We exist to meet the needs of our community with unique opportunities for performing art lovers of all ages.

Support WHBPAC by purchasing tickets, sponsoring a performance, or becoming a donor to enjoy unparalleled access to our jewel-box theatre. Your generosity allows us to bring the world-class performing arts experiences to our stage that you know and love. In addition to our Mainstage performances, we offer a thriving year-round Arts Academy, host summer camps, and work with local organizations to serve as many communities as possible through intentional programming, school day performances, and so much more. From special events, fundraisers, and performances for our community, Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center is the best venue for live entertainment on Long Island.
