Costello said, “I am humbled and excited by this opportunity to lead this incredible organization in collaboration with an incredible team, board and volunteers, and in partnership with the Municipality of Anchorage, our client and community partners. I am grateful for my years working with Nancy and value the many contributions she has made to the arts and our community as a whole. We are so fortunate to have a place like the PAC, a place for coming together and experiencing all the arts have to offer, to connect, transform and grow as a community. I am truly looking forward to bringing forth a vision for the next 30 years, ensuring that the next generation can enjoy this truly magical place.”
