Nashville Public Arts Crisis, NPAC, an expression of StoryLine church, wants to raise awareness of the needed budget for the art and music departments in our public school system. With small concerts at local venues, NPAC will help raise funds and spread this message. Each event will generate donations for one specific school and one specific department. With growth in awareness, each event will be larger than the last. This is a movement, a series of actions tending toward a particular end, by people who have a passion for the arts, whether it's in music, literature, art or theater.
