The Curtis R. Priem Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC)
Experience the glorious state-of the-art concert hall and three other venues in what the New York Times has called a “technological pleasure dome for the mind.”
Located on the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute campus, EMPAC invites you to explore adventurous programming in music, performance, media, theater, and much more.
