Pittsburgh Cultural Trust Announces
Free Programming Activities for the 35th Annual EQT Children’s Theater Festival

An interactive virtual event fostering wonder, growth, and creativity!

May 1-16 | Online Platform TrustArts.org/PGHKids/events

 

The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust is excited to announce the free programming options that will accompany the featured programming lineup for the 2021 EQT Children’s Theater Festival. In order to prioritize the health of patrons, staff, vendors, and artists, these free activities will be presented on a virtual platform. This additional programming will be accessible on the EQT Children’s Theater Festival website for the duration of the festival.

 

“We are thrilled to partner with so many diverse organizations to provide free programming options as part of this year’s festival” says Pamela Komar, Director of Theater, Music, and Youth Programming for the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust. “These activities provide countless opportunities for children and teens to learn, create, and grow”.


The EQT Foundation, which was established by EQT Corporation, the nation’s largest producer of natural gas, returns in 2021 for an eighth year as the Festival’s lead and title underwriter, connecting the Pittsburgh community to international arts, entertainment, and culture. Through focused giving, the EQT Foundation provides educational opportunities for all ages, values the development of livable communities, and is committed to the preservation of natural resources in our region.


In addition to the EQT Foundation, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust thanks its sponsors, Giant Eagle, Inc., The Fine Foundation, the Maranne P. Welch Family Endowment, Allegheny Regional Asset District, The Grable Foundation, and The Buhl Foundation. Special thanks to collaborators Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership, City of Pittsburgh, Citiparks, Western Pennsylvania Conservancy, and Alco Parking Corporation, the Milk Shake Factory, and media partners KDKA-TV and Kidsburgh.

After months of virtual rehearsals, the resulting video features 38 singers who, at the time of recording, had yet to sing the song together in the same room.

Traditionally, the EQT Children's Theater Festival happens for 4 days in May in Downtown Pittsburgh's Cultural District, bringing extraordinary and unique experiences to young people and continuing the tradition of theater for children. The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has changed life as we know it for families and children across the world. Classrooms have become laptop screens, and embracing the child-like imagination that we once all possessed has become more important than ever. To prioritize the health of our patrons, staff, vendors, and artists the festival remains on a virtual platform - the EQT Children's Theater Festival @ Home.

 

The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust has overseen one of Pittsburgh’s most historic transformations: turning a seedy red-light district into a magnet destination for arts lovers, residents, visitors, and business owners. Founded in 1984, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust is a non-profit arts organization whose mission is the cultural and economic revitalization of a 14-block arts and entertainment/residential neighborhood called the Cultural District. The District is one of the country’s largest land masses “curated” by a single nonprofit arts organization. A major catalytic force in the city, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust is a unique model of how public-private partnerships can reinvent a city with authenticity, innovation and creativity. Using the arts as an economic catalyst, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust has holistically created a world-renowned Cultural District that is revitalizing the city, improving the regional economy and enhancing Pittsburgh’s quality of life. Thanks to the support of foundations, corporations, government agencies and thousands of private citizens, the Trust stands as a national model of urban redevelopment through the arts.
