The arts industry is facing a defining moment. As DEI faces backlash, the best thing we can do is grow and expand. Instead of retreating, we are doubling down—training more inclusive leaders, coaches, consultants, and artists who can weather this tumultuous time and build a future where brave and bold art thrives in divided times.

That’s why we created the Inclusive Stages™ Cohort Certification. This program equips theater and arts professionals with the essential skills to foster inclusive, trauma-informed, and emotionally intelligent creative spaces. We need partners like you to help us scale this work. Your donation or sponsorship will ensure that more artists and leaders have the tools and resilience to push inclusion forward.

This is not about surface-level DEI. It’s about real, tangible transformation—and it’s about ensuring the arts remain a place where all voices belong.

We Need Your Support

Your sponsorship or donation will help train the next generation of inclusion-focused arts leaders. Let’s turn frustration into action, and ensure the arts industry has the skills, strength, and resilience to keep moving forward.
