Take a Seat for GCDS FIRST, the final phase of GCDS FIRST: The Campaign for Tradition and Innovation, aims to build a state-of-the-art performing arts center on the Stanwich Road campus.

Through the exceptional vision and generosity of Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss '97, the Amanda Gesine Winklevoss ‘94 Performing Arts Center will be a state-of-the-art theater where community is fostered  and creativity is inspired. Gifted in memory of Cameron and Tyler’s sister, Amanda - a performer, beloved friend, and true GCDS Tiger - the PAC honors our past and celebrates our future. 


Join us at this extraordinary moment in our history by purchasing a seat in the Amanda G. Winklevoss '94 Performing Arts Center, slated to open in 2027. Each seat will have an inscribed plaque - a personal way to signal your support for generations to come. 

One seat at a time, we will build a vibrant future for the performing arts at GCDS!

"It’s an honor to work with GCDS to build the Performing Arts Center in memory of our sister, Amanda Gesine Winklevoss of the Class of ‘94.

She loved her friends, teachers, and time at GCDS.

This tribute to Amanda and her passion for the performing arts is the perfect way to remember her and give back to a school that has meant so much to our family."

-Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, Class of 1997
