Children's Theatre Workshop seeks passionate board members for the 2025-26, 2026-27, and 2027-28 seasons. Board members meet every other month in person/online for at-large board meetings and in the months between meetings for committees. We eagerly seek board members who will regularly advocate for CTW in the community, attend events to show support, and connect stakeholders in the community to CTW.

Fundraising

Children’s Theatre Workshop Board Members will consider CTW a philanthropic priority and make annual gifts that reflect that priority. So that CTW can credibly solicit contributions from foundations, organizations, and individuals, CTW expects to have 100 percent of Board Members make an annual contribution that is commensurate with their capacity. There is no minimum amount required.
