Located on the campus of North Palm Beach Community College, the Ed Eissey Theatre, equipped with an orchestra pit, a full fly loft, and counterweighted rigging system, hosts numerous community educational programs and family entertainment via its “Arts in the Gardens” guest artist series. With an enrollment of approximately 49,000 students, the areas of study are plentiful and include a popular Associate in Arts degree. With the recent addition of a new Bioscience Technology Complex, multi-media classrooms, labs, a horticultural nursery, and an art gallery, the college is a magnet for its visionary process. In 2001, a state-of-the-art child care center opened its doors to children of families within the community, faculty members and students.
