It all began in 2001 in a small facility in Paul Revere Mall (Prado).
That’s when, 25 years ago, the North End Music and Performing Arts Center (NEMPAC), a non-profit neighborhood group officially opened its doors offering high-quality teaching and learning experience to new and expiring arts seeking their dreams.
NEMPAC, over the years, has provided students with scholarships that helps them continue their musical and performing art goals.
They have also provided many community events free to the public to attend and enjoy.
A successful and totally professional organization, NEMPAC would be welcomed in any community with open arms.
They hit all the right notes!
