The Board of Directors of Theatre Adventure, Inc. is pleased to announce that we have been awarded four grants to support our online programming for 2021. These grants have been received from the Puffin Foundation, Windham Foundation, Brattleboro Town Arts Fund, and the Vermont Community Foundation Crosby-Gannett Fund.

The Puffin Foundation has awarded Theatre Adventure a grant to support the Peer Mentor Leadership Project in our online format. Funds will be used for an Assistant Teacher who has developmental challenges, to offer Mentor financial aid, and to support the supervision of the Mentors.

A grant from the Windham Foundation will provide technical support for continued engagement in Theatre Adventure’s online curriculum. Grant funding will be used to increase the hours of the Technical Support staff in order to facilitate virtual instruction and performances for at least forty individuals with disabilities throughout 2021.

Grants from the Brattleboro Town Arts Fund and the Vermont Community Foundation Crosby-Gannett Fund will cover expenses for art supplies for Theatre Adventure participants. These materials allow all troupe members to fully access the curriculum while participating from home in our online programming. The grant from the Vermont Community Foundation Crosby-Gannett Fund additionally provides technical support through the Spring 2022 semester.
