CTA’s New Arts Center!

We are thrilled to share some exciting news with you about a significant new chapter in the life of Children’s Theatre of Annapolis. It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the public kickoff of our capital campaign, Growing Our Reach, dedicated to expanding CTA’s existing home as well as building a stronger arts community in Annapolis and the State of Maryland.
With the transformation of our existing annex into a state-of-the-art multipurpose arts center where students ages 5 -18 will learn dancing, acting and singing, CTA positions itself as a regional arts and culture leader. This campaign expands CTA’s campus to include two new classrooms as well as black box theater that will seat more than 75 patrons.
Together, we can help our students achieve extraordinary things and give them a safe space to learn, explore, create, and express themselves. We invite you to join us in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity by making a generous gift to our Growing Our Reach Campaign. Help us bring this facility and vision to life.
CTA’s Commitment to Community
At Children’s Theatre of Annapolis (CTA), we are dedicated to creating a welcoming and enriching environment for all. We believe in the power of the performing arts to bring people together and provide meaningful opportunities for individuals of all backgrounds to participate, learn, and shine.
Our programs are designed to be open and accessible to everyone, ensuring that all children and families feel welcome and valued. We strive to reflect the richness of our community by engaging a broad range of participants, audiences, staff, and volunteers. Through our performances, educational programs, and outreach efforts, we are committed to fostering a supportive atmosphere where creativity and talent can flourish.
Behind the scenes, we work to maintain an environment where all team members—whether board members, staff, teaching artists, actors, or volunteers—are encouraged to share their unique perspectives and experiences. We believe that a wide range of voices strengthens our organization and enhances the quality of our productions and programs.
At CTA, our goal is to inspire and uplift through the magic of theatre, ensuring that every child and family who walks through our doors feels valued and has the opportunity to engage, grow, and contribute.
