Hi! Max, TONYC’s Director of Communications, here. As we explore new and exciting ways of engaging folks through our website, we’re sharing reflections from community members encountering our work. The following piece was written by Anya (she/her), a 17-year-old from Wales who visited New York City with Welsh theatre company Frân Wen to work with TONYC and TONYC’s Ali Forney Center troupe from March 19th-22nd. Frân Wen connected with TONYC through The Ali Forney Center's North American Technical Assistance conference. We hope you enjoy this firsthand account of Anya’s experience and what it meant to her.

For Theatre of the Oppressed NYC, 2023 has been a year full of firsts, as well as reimagined versions of longtime processes and offerings. Whether you joined us for a single event or a full season, or just spent time with us in your inbox or on social media, let's take a stroll down memory lane with a look at the last 365 days. (And, if you're so inclined, help us with the next 365 by making a donation today!)

On December 15th, 2023, Arts & Homelessness International hosted their first-ever Arts & Homelessness International Awards recognizing excellence in the sector around the world from projects to individuals. TONYC was recognized with the Special Commendation for Co-Creation Champion of the Year by an independent judging panel.

On Wednesday, December 6th, TONYC reached its match through Brooklyn Org's #BrooklynGives on Giving Tuesday campaign.
