Hamon donation to arts center

By Shelley Kofler

Dallas, TX – Philanthropist Nancy Hamon has donated $10-million to the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts, money that will be used to add rehearsal and recital space to the Center's new opera house.

The gift puts the Center over its $275 million fund raising goal. When it opens next year, the Performing Arts Center will be the city's primary venue for music, opera, theatre and dance.
