Order in the Court! Order in the Court!

Welcome to McKinney Performing Arts Center at the Historic Collin County Courthouse's new blog. We're trying to bring this 19th century building into the 21st century!

For those of you who may not know a lot about MPAC, we are a multi-purpose rental facility and performing arts venue located in Collin County's historic courthouse smack-dab in the middle of downtown McKinney. The building dates back to 1874 and was remodeled in 1927 and served as a functioning courthouse until 1979. After sitting vacant for almost 25 years, the building re-opened as MPAC in 2006. Since opening, we've welcomed local and national performers and have hosted countless events including weddings, classes, worship services, and meetings.

This blog will serve as another way for us to communicate with you about what's happening and what folks are saying. And, we may even sneak in some good behind the scenes stuff too.

Enjoy, and please always let us know what you think!
