Saturday Church For the Culture Community Partners

For each show in our season, our Education & Engagement department collaborates with a variety of community partners. Our incredible partners for Saturday Church all actively support the communities and individuals that the musical represents onstage. The themes of the show are embodied in the impact these organizations are making for families, the queer community, queer youth and young people of color, people of a range of religious backgrounds, and the intersections of our shared identities. We are excited for you to learn more about these organizations and support them in achieving their missions.

What is FOR THE CULTURE?

To expand meaningful audience engagement among artists, audiences, and staff, New York Theatre Workshop is introducing the “For the Culture Series.”  Through FTC, NYTW seeks to bridge the gap between the world we know and the world we are actively striving to build – where we harness the power of theatre to deepen human connections by learning and growing from the lived experiences of each other; connect through art, shared customs, traditions and heritage(s); and where we amplify artists and work by traditionally underrepresented groups or individuals, creating access to the Workshop for historically marginalized communities in order to build and sustain authentic relationships with our fellow community members and theatergoers.
