Where Your Donation Goes
The largest portion of our budget goes toward compensating our artists and staff. Financial barriers often prevent talented artists from marginalized backgrounds from participating in low-budget new work development. By offering meaningful pay, we can cast a wide net and build an inclusive, sustainable production team.
