Welcome to the 2008-2009 Performance Season
Come Celebrate Our Fifth Season with Us!

It’s our Fifth Anniversary of arts and entertainment here at the Forest Hills Fine Arts Center, now fondly known as The FAC. To mark our first milestone, we are presenting our best series ever, with a sensational, far-ranging lineup of music legends including country music’s Clint Black, everyone’s favorite five-time Grammy winner Michael McDonald, Three Dog Night (formerly “the most popular band in America”… remember Joy to the World), and R&B icon Phoebe Snow capped off with the daredevil Golden Dragon acrobats, and Billy Joel’s fabulous Broadway musical, Movin’ Out.

This year’s calendar spread is better: September through March. The nights are better: three Sundays, two Fridays and a Tuesday. But the time to get your season tickets is shorter and this lineup will sell faster. Series tickets, and all the benefits that come with them only are available through September 19. We hope to welcome you to our growing family of season subscribers to six evenings of big-city entertainment.
