Did You Know?

During APT’s closure during the pandemic, we were able to complete the first phase of our building renovation project that will allow us to better serve our patrons and community. We are proud to announce that we installed a handicap accessible at the Exchange Street entrance to our space. We upgraded and redesigned Stage Right to include a beer and wine bar and a sound booth; feel free to check it out during our weekly Open Mic Nite (every Tuesday at 7:30pm), or one of our upcoming concerts like the Modus Report or McKinley James concerts! If you come to one of our upcoming Main Stage concerts, including An Evening with Jimmy Webb, the Peter Mack Quartet, or the David Bromberg Quintet, you might see Mo and Janie in our newly renovated Box Office or see Carey and Brian in their new downstairs offices. The one thing you will not see is the lower level of the theater. We have cleaned out the entire basement with the help of our Grace House volunteers to make space for the next phase of our exciting renovations… you won’t believe what we have in store!

We are overjoyed to continue our expansion in order to better meet the needs of our community!
