$15,000 to forge a new path for students of color and those from other underrepresented groups who aspire to apply for Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) and conservatory programs. The cost associated with travel, tools, and training to successfully attend a conservatory or BFA program has hindered many minority and economically disadvantaged students from following their dream of pursuing a career in theatre. TGI’s programming is focused on helping these students successfully navigate the process of applications, prescreens, and auditions during a “gap” year following their high school graduation.
