proper presentation of symphony concerts, opera, drama, ballet, musical
plays, popular music and jazz, and all varieties of musical performance;

conventions, political rallies, lectures and other meeting would be

County; and

management and insurance which have plagued previous efforts to obtain
a Performing Arts Center have been solved by Palm Beach Junior College;
and
WHEREAS a Community Performing Arts Center at Palm Beach
