We are pleased to announce our final draft on a significant governing document for Theater Makers Lab. This document was crafted by Pamela Gagnon and Jon Slifka and submitted for board approval this past week. We have formally adopted the language in this document as our North Star. We hope that other Theater Makers find this useful when formulating their own policies.
We hope to LIVE the MISSION in the coming months and years and know that this document will continue to evolve along with us.
Whether it is IDEA or DEI or READI, the intent and focus on developing institutionalized practices around inclusivity, diversity, equity, and access are all part of the same impulse.
