Dear Presidential Lecture & Performance Series Patron,

Thank you for your interest in our programming.

I am thrilled to present to you an exciting lineup of events that is leading us to a captivating & educational 2024/25 season. Whether you are a brand new or returning patron: welcome to our small, but impactful program, which aims to enhance the intellectual and cultural landscape of Texas Tech University and the South Plains. I look forward to welcoming you at our events, which we've referred to as President Schovanec's gift to the community for many seasons. I hope you know that your continued support is what makes this program possible, as no performing arts series could exist without its audience's interest.

Thank you for joining us for our 18th season of culture-making tradition. I hope to have you in the Allen Theatre soon; welcome to PLPS!
