Founded in 1984, the Garden State Arts Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to enriching the cultural landscape of New Jersey and the surrounding areas. Our mission involves hosting free programs every spring and fall at the renowned PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ, where we strive to curate a diverse array of classical, cultural, and popular performances.
Would you consider donating $1 per ticket per show?
As a nonprofit organization, the Foundation relies on the generosity of our community to help offset the ongoing expenses involved in producing our concerts, including artist fees, staffing, and venue operations.
If you are able, we kindly invite you to consider making a donation of $1 per ticket, per show, to help support the continuation of this program.
Important: Ticket & Clear Bag Policies
Please be advised that we can no longer allow entry to our events without a ticket. Each person must have either a hard copy or e-ticket (printed or on mobile device) in order to enter the PNC Bank Arts Center.
We also now must comply with the Clear Bag Policy, consistent with all shows at the PNC Bank Arts Center shows. See Event Day Info for details.
