The Fox Riverside Theater Foundation is a tiny nonprofit with a BIG mission: to bring the arts to under-served communities in our local region - with a special focus on inspiring and supporting local students of all ages in pursuing careers both on stage and behind the scenes. We enrich the lives of those who we serve through community-focused performances, outreach, and fundraising activities. Governed by a stellar Board of Directors, our mission comes to life through our amazing, interactive programs, such as Students at the Fox, Seniors at the Fox, behind-the-scenes tours, and Live Tech, a program to teach theater technology to high school students, using the Fox Performing Arts Center as the learning lab and Live Nation (theater operator) professionals as instructors.
