Egg Harbor
Peg Egan Performing Art Center
The Peg Egan Performing Art Center (PAC) took shape from 2005-2007 at the 6.2 acre Eames Cherry View Park and openned in 2008. The Park itself was generously donated by over 40 Egg Harbor residents who are acknowledged in a plaque near the path to the PAC. The Park setting is on a hillside that overlooks the Green Bay waters with the PAC located at the lower part of the hill. Audiences view performances from a grassy slopping green lawn.
The designer was Ralph Bergman from Portside Builders. The signature "wave" look of the roof is from a company in Alabama. It took weeks of steaming to bend the laminated strands into the rolling waves. A dedicated tractor trailer brought the roof north from Alabama. People still remember the excitement of watching the truck's arrival. A wonderful YouTube video has the history of how it was established and how it all works for all who visit Egg Harbor. |
This sculpture greets visitors at the entrance. The inscription reads:
