Frisco Exploring $340M Fine Arts Hub

The City of Frisco is working with Prosper Independent School District (PISD) on a proposed Frisco Center for the Arts (FCFA), and collaborate with Broadway Across America / Broadway Dallas to create a ‘Broadway Frisco’ series to reside in the facility. The vision for the FCFA includes a 2,800-seat performance hall, capable of accommodating Broadway and large touring and community productions, as well as a 300 to 400-seat community hall, to be used primarily by Prosper ISD while also providing access to community organizations and events. The proposed facility also includes support spaces, rehearsal areas, and visual arts creative spaces. 

The potential FCFA project requires the Frisco City Council to put the proposed measure on a ballot. The FCFA, as proposed, has a total maximum project budget of $340 million.  Prosper ISD intends to contribute $100 million from its 2023 Performing Arts Center bond funds.  The City of Frisco is considering private and philanthropic funding sources, which would not increase property taxes, should voters approve the proposed facility.
