The building used to also include The Health Adventure, Colburn Earth Science Museum, and Asheville Art Museum. After The Health Adventure became part of the Asheville Museum of Science on Patton Avenue, Asheville Art Museum expanded into its former space. Diana Wortham is the daughter of Gus Wortham and Lyndall Finley Wortham and was "one of the largest private benefactors … of Pack Place," according to theatre director John Ellis. She continues to donate to causes, including improvements to the theatre, but she does not make appearances. The name of the theater changed to Wortham Center for the Performing Arts September 17, 2019, the day of a ribbon cutting. (en)
