Welcome to the Friends of the Performing Arts Center

The Friends of the Performing Arts Center, or PAC Friends, is a volunteer usher program that serves guest services needs of the Christopher Cohan Performing Arts Center. The PAC Friends volunteer for a wide array of events including Cal Poly performances, guest lecturers, local music organizations concerts, local schools' performances, and touring productions. Our guests' experiences and safety are our priorities.

We are extremely fortunate to not only have a full Usher team, but a Wait List of over 150 potential PAC Friends! We recruit and add Ushers based on the amount of active Ushers we have and how long a person has been on our Wait List. If you're interested in becoming an Usher, please be sure to check out our Usher Basics and send a message to Milly Barizo, Coordinator of Guest and Volunteer Services at mbarizo@calpoly.edu
