THE ARTHUR MILLER FOUNDATION IS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT PROVIDES ACCESS AND EQUITY TO QUALITY THEATER EDUCATION IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, AND AIMS TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS THAT RECEIVE A DEDICATED THEATER EDUCATION AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THEIR ACADEMIC CURRICULUM BY CERTIFYING AND SUPPORTING PUBLIC SCHOOL THEATER TEACHERS.

AS AN ORGANIZATION, WE AFFIRM THAT IF ARTS EDUCATION ASSUMES ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOL CURRICULUM, WE WILL FOSTER GENERATIONS OF IMAGINATIVE GRADUATES, ENHANCING THE EVOLVING WORLD OF THEATER AND ALL OTHER FIELDS OF HUMAN ENDEAVOR.
THE ARTHUR MILLER FOUNDATION (AMF) MISSION IS TO PROVIDE ACCESS AND EQUITY TO QUALITY PUBLIC SCHOOL THEATER EDUCATION. THIS MISSION IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH TWO KEY PROGRAMS. THE ARTHUR MILLER FOUNDATION FELLOWS PROGRAM IS A THREE-YEAR PROGRAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE NEW YORK CITY DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION THAT PROVIDES THEATER TEACHERS WITH THE DEDICATED RESOURCES AND SUPPORT NEEDED TO BUILD SUSTAINABLE IN-SCHOOL THEATER PROGRAMS AS AN INTEGRAL COMPONENT OF A PRE-K-12 ACADEMIC CURRICULUM FOR EVERY STUDENT. ADDITIONALLY, AS A MEANS OF INCREASING AND DIVERSIFYING THE NUMBER OF CERTIFIED THEATER TEACHERS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, THROUGH THE ARTHUR MILLER FOUNDATION SCHOLARS PROGRAM, THE FOUNDATION PROVIDES SCHOLARSHIP GRANTS FOR ELIGIBLE CANDIDATES TO EARN THEIR NEW YORK STATE THEATER TEACHING CERTIFICATION THROUGH THE GRADUATE PROGRAM IN EDUCATIONAL THEATRE AT THE CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK.
ARTHUR MILLER FOUNDATION FELLOWS PROGRAM:THE ARTHUR MILLER FOUNDATION FELLOWS PROGRAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE NEW YORK CITY DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION OFFICE OF ARTS AND SPECIAL PROJECTS (NYC DOE OASP) HAS THE GOAL OF EXPANDING ACCESS AND EQUITY TO QUALITY THEATER EDUCATION FOR STUDENTS BY OFFERING TAILORED SUPPORT TO PUBLIC SCHOOL THEATER TEACHERS, INCLUDING EXPERIENCED MENTORS, CULTURAL PARTNER RESIDENCIES, CLASSROOM RESOURCES, THEATER FIELD TRIPS FOR STUDENTS AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES.IN 5 YEARS, THE PROGRAM HAS EXPANDED FROM 15 TO 60 FELLOWS AT 60 PUBLIC SCHOOLS, IMPACTING OVER 30,000 ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN ALL 5 BOROUGHS OF NEW YORK CITY. IT IS ONE OF THE FEW EXISTING PROGRAMS WITH A FOCUS ON INTEGRATING THEATER ARTS EDUCATION INTO THE ACADEMIC DAY.
ARTHUR MILLER FOUNDATION SCHOLARS PROGRAM:THE ARTHUR MILLER FOUNDATION SCHOLARS PROGRAM PROVIDES 50% TUITION SCHOLARSHIP GRANTS TO CURRENT, LICENSED NEW YORK CITY DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION (NYC DOE) TEACHERS COMMITTED TO OBTAINING AN ADDITIONAL CERTIFICATION IN THEATER AND AN MS.ED. DEGREE IN EDUCATIONAL THEATER FROM THE CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK (CCNY), IN ORDER TO TEACH THEATER IN AN NYC DOE PUBLIC SCHOOL. WHILE AMF GIVES PRIORITY TO NEW YORK STATE (NYS) RESIDENT CANDIDATES WHO ARE TEACHING ANOTHER SUBJECT IN AN NYC DOE PUBLIC SCHOOL, THE FOUNDATION ALSO CONSIDERS OTHER QUALIFIED CANDIDATES (SUCH AS RESIDENT OR NON-RESIDENT SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS, TEACHING ARTISTS, AND THOSE WITH UNDERGRADUATE DEGREES IN THEATER) WHO ARE ELIGIBLE TO ENROLL IN THE CCNY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN EDUCATIONAL THEATRE, WITH THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF BECOMING A PERMANENT, CERTIFIED PUBLIC SCHOOL THEATER TEACHER.
