Grants for Educators & Theatre Programs
Looking for support for your theatre program?
A core piece of the Educational Theatre Foundation’s work is supporting theatre educators and theatre programs directly. We do this through a series of production and educator grants available to both members of EdTA as well as non-members. The vast majority of our grant applications are accepted between February 1 – April 1 annually. Browse the options below to learn more.
For EdTA Members
If you have a Thespian troupe or are an EdTA member, you are eligible ETF’s Production Grants and Educator Grants. Production Grants are offered in collaboration with the rights holders for specific plays and musicals or for initiative-based productions that build community. Educator Grants include equipment upgrades, professional development for educators, production expenses, and other troupe-related expenses. Explore both types of grants below to learn more.
Not a Member Yet?
The Educational Theatre Foundation offers grants to help you get started as a valued member of EdTA’s global community. Whether you’re looking to start a Thespian troupe in your school or want an individual membership for yourself, ETF has you covered. Additionally, the Craig Zadan Pathway for Equity in the Arts Grant, which supports expenses around a community-building production, is open to all high school programs (regardless of membership status).
