Performing Arts Fort Worth

The mission of the Nancy Lee and Perry R. Bass Performance Hall is to serve as a permanent home to major performing arts organizations of Fort Worth and as a premier venue for other attractions so as to enhance the range, quality, and accessibility of cultural fare available to the public; to promulgate arts education; and to contribute to the cultural life of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, and the region.

Just as the arts have the power to unite us, so does Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Access. 

At Performing Arts Fort Worth, IDEA is universal. Our commitment is to the IDEA that all are welcome and valued.

It is through IDEA and thoughtful, constructive and respectful communication across our organization and with those we serve that we work together to provide the best performing arts experiences at Bass Performance Hall and across our community.

At Performing Arts Fort Worth, we strive for excellence in creating a respectful and welcoming atmosphere for all through leadership, policies and practices. We acknowledge that an equitable, diverse, and inclusive environment where everyone can access and engage with the performing arts is central to our relevance and longevity in the community we serve.
