PUC Kicks off the Academic Year with Focus on Access, Service, and Campus Engagement
As Princeton University Concerts (“PUC”) opened its 2024-25 Season, the series offered unique opportunities for refugee families, low-income community members from the Princeton and Trenton areas, Princeton University students and professors, and neurodiverse audiences to engage with live music.
PUC Director Marna Seltzer remarks, “I find myself reflecting on how, from Princeton University Concerts’ inception in 1894, our mission has been centered on access—bringing world-class musicians from all over the world to Princeton and making their music accessible to everyone. Those words are literally in the original deed of the gift that started PUC. It feels like our founders would be proud that 131 years later we are still adding new ways for people to join our community of music lovers.”
