Other ways to help MVCT
Community Impacts from the Arts and Theater
Theater and the arts are vital for community building, fostering creativity, promoting social cohesion, and enriching lives, serving as a platform for diverse expression and skill development.
Culture, Community, and Inclusion
Inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA) are important to support in any avenue of society, particularly in the performing arts. These industries shape public ideas about cultural identity and expose audiences to ideas, conflicts, and discourses they may not otherwise encounter in their daily lives—or at all. Because performing arts like ballet, opera, movies, and theater play such an important role in how people understand the society they live in, it’s essential that productions engage with all images and forms of human existence.
