Conte Pass Scholarship

Thanks to ongoing support from The Kristen Elizabeth Conte Fund, Columbus Children’s Theatre increases equity, inclusion, and access by providing Theatre Arts Training scholarships of up to 80% off tuition to audiences traditionally excluded from professional arts experiences due to economic disparities and hardship with the Conte Pass program. 

Eligibility for the Conte Pass program is established using free and reduced lunch program participation, household income guidelines, a statement of need, and recognition of other barriers to participation. Participation in the Advanced Performance Academy (APA) also requires program acceptance by audition or portfolio review. Once approved, the Conte Pass membership lasts for 2 years.
