ELMHURST, IL, January 14, 2020 — Elmhurst Centre for Performing Arts is pleased to be moving into the next phase of its growth and development by adding Shawna Roubitchek to their team as Managing Director and opening permanent office space at 105 South York Street in Elmhurst. “The opening of the new ECPA office and the addition of such a talented person as Shawna to the ECPA team as Managing Director is the natural next step in the process of creating the Centre for Performing Arts,” says ECPA Board President Jeff Budgell. Roubitchek has been involved with ECPA since its inception, most recently as Co-Chair of the annual Spotlight Gala, ECPA’s largest fundraiser. Roubitchek brings to the Managing Director position a wealth of experience in project management, hospitality and tourism, having worked at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, Hyatt Hotels, and the Chicago Convention and Tourism Bureau. In her new role with ECPA, Roubitchek will be overseeing its operations, managing the current fundraising and outreach programs, as well as looking for additional ways to spread awareness and gain support for the development of a performing arts venue in the western suburbs. By Roubitchek handling these aspects of the business, it allows the ECPA board to concentrate on the upcoming capital campaign and naming rights needed to take ECPA to the next stage–building a state-of-the-art performing arts venue. Both professionally and personally, Roubitchek is passionate about expanding the visibility of the arts in our community. “I’m excited to be a part of such an incredible initiative. In so many ways, the arts shape, change, and most importantly, enhance our lives. A performing arts center will be an impactful addition to our residents and those in the surrounding areas. For Elmhurst, to be the seat of something so wonderful...it’s quite rewarding on many levels.” By coincidence or kismet, the new ECPA offices look directly at the future site of the Elmhurst Centre for Performing Arts at 109-119 First Street, allowing Roubitchek and the entire ECPA team to see their vision as it comes to life over the coming years. ### If you would like more information about this topic, please call Laura Michaud at 224-283-7889, or laura@lauramichaud.com.

LLC purchase of 1st Street

Today, the Elmhurst-First LLC announced its purchase of a property on behalf of the Elmhurst Centre for Performing Arts (ECPA), furthering plans for ECPA to establish a performing arts center in downtown Elmhurst. The property, 109-119 First Street, is directly across from the Elmhurst Metra station, and considered a strategic location due to its centrality within downtown Elmhurst, accessibility and visibility from public transportation. Additionally, the center-of-town location is expected to bring positive economic impact to restaurants, bars and businesses as projected in the Feasibility and Economic Impact Study conducted jointly between ECPA and the City of Elmhurst. “I’ve been saying this all along, and now it’s even more true - a performing arts center in Elmhurst will be one of the crown jewels of this city,” said Elmhurst Mayor Steve Morley. “I am personally excited about the potential that ECPA has in store for us.” The effort to understand the viability of a downtown performing arts center began in 2016 when a group of professionals with a common vision developed an interest survey and business plan. They brought experience in theater management, commercial real estate, performing arts and business to the newly formed ECPA, a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization in the state of Illinois. Feasibility studies, individual donors, corporate sponsors, volunteers and community support, have advanced this initiative to this exciting stage, securing a location for the theatre. “This is a significant milestone in ECPA’s initiative to bring a performing arts center to the heart of Elmhurst,” commented Tom Marcucci, former Mayor of Elmhurst and current ECPA Board Member. “We have done the research and know that building this center will be financially stable.” One of the members of the Elmhurst-First LLC and local business owner Willis G. Johnson commented, “We are pleased to be a part of the advancement of the ECPA project for Elmhurst and the surrounding suburbs. This investment in our community will help ensure we cultivate local talent and will add a new cultural component to Elmhurst’s vibrant arts and entertainment offerings.” Willis and his wife Shirley own Elmhurst’s York Theater and Tivoli Enterprises Inc/Classic Cinemas. The next important phase involves design, construction planning and a capital campaign. The capital campaign will target fundraising through large donors including opportunities for naming rights, grants and individual donations. The First Street building will retain its current retail and residential space for the next four to five years during the planning and capital campaign.
