Theatre Aspen Education offers a variety of high-value programs for students of all ages, featuring industry professionals as teachers, directors, designers, and more. Our programs help students build skills, gain confidence, and experience the lasting enrichment that comes from participation in the performing arts.

We are committed to ensuring that our programs are within reach for any student who wants to participate, and Theatre Aspen Education is proud that we have never turned a student away due to financial need. To support this commitment, Theatre Aspen Education offers need-based scholarships and payment plans to families.

Scholarships are made possible through the generosity of donors and are intended for families who would otherwise be unable to participate. Families requesting support should complete a simple online form before registering. Once submitted, requests are reviewed and families receive a response with scholarship information and registration instructions.

As we strive to continue meeting the needs of participating families, we welcome new donors who feel as passionately as we do about making the arts accessible to children. Please contact Jess at jelkins@theatreaspen.org to make a donation to our scholarship fund today.

If your family can pay full tuition over time, but would benefit from additional payment flexibility, please email education@theatreaspen.org to request a payment plan. If your family needs scholarship support in order to participate, please click below to be taken to the Scholarship Form.


Thank you to those who provide funding for our summer, after-school, and pilot programs as well as vital scholarships for students of all ages.
