Mission and programs · 2024

Primary exempt purpose

Portland Youth Theater's primary exempt purpose is to unlock self-discovery in young people through the transformative power of theater. Our programs reach hundreds of kids each week in our venue and in schools throughout our community, providing a safe, nurturing and happy environment in which kids can create theater while learning about themselves and the world around them.

  • INSTRUCTIONAL CLASSES AND PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES - Kids of all ages, abilities, and experience levels participated in a full season of all-student, public performances of musicals and plays. In 2024 we piloted new educational theater programs with intentionally designed curricula branded specifically to our organization.

    Expenses $136,846

  • IN-SCHOOL RESIDENCIES - Teaching artists develop and deliver customized performing arts programming to take place in public schools, independent schools, and homeschool programs. We continued to expand our in-school programs to include partnerships with new organizations and schools in 2024, with a focus on bringing our educational programs to after-care programs - a particular need in our community.

    Expenses $4,068

  • PRIVATE MUSIC INSTRUCTION: After a pilot test in 2022-2023, STAGES rolled out a Private Music Instruction studio to deliver high-quality piano and voice instruction to young people ages 7-17 in 2024. Individual music instruction at STAGES was designed with the same foundation of our other educational programs - meeting kids where they are at with a non-competitive instruction model that balances quality music instruction with a low-pressure, non-recital-based format, providing our best possible scenario for developing skills and cultivating a life-long appreciation and love of music.
