The Problem

Growing up in backwoods Texas, it was difficult to pursue any form of arts. However, I came across a very influential teacher in Theatre at my school. He showed our small town how to appreciate arts and I hope to start an organization that focuses on reaching out to small neglected schools with no performing arts program.

Plan of Action

Through a strategic placement of steps I can begin to pursue this by: 1. Travel to small schools and promote theatre arts. 2. Support small town theatre art programs (funding, promoting, etc.). 3. Establish programs in rural communities.
