Houston’s changemaking performing arts organizations come together to celebrate World Theatre Day

In celebration of World Theatre Day on March 27, we are taking a closer look at the impact of theatre on our community. Fresh Arts, a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering local artists through resources and community connections, has been sponsoring the local production company, TEATRX, since 2019. Angela Carranza from Fresh Arts and Benito Vasquez from TEATRX recently sat down with Houston Life to discuss how they are working together to support the advancement of Houston theatre.

One of the main focuses of their collaboration is empowering Latinx voices, artists, and their stories. By providing support and resources, Fresh Arts and TEATRX are helping to amplify diverse voices in the Houston theatre scene. This partnership not only showcases the rich cultural heritage of the Latinx community, but also allows for greater representation and inclusivity within the local arts scene.

Through their collaboration, Fresh Arts and TEATRX are demonstrating the importance of supporting and uplifting artists from all backgrounds. By working together, they are helping to create a more vibrant and diverse theatre community in Houston. We look forward to seeing how their partnership continues to make a positive impact on the local arts scene for years to come.
