It's time for Hudson Valley Gives!

All day today VetRep is participating in Hudson Valley Gives, a fundraising drive across seven local counties in New York! Tune in to our Instagram page for live streams showcasing our spaces, our new programming, and best of all, the artists we are so privileged to work with.

We invite you to join us in supporting our expansion plans and the Veterans Apprenticeship, Internship and Part-Time Jobs Program. We've secured iconic locations such as the Mechanics Savings Bank in Beacon, NY, and the historic Lemon Building in Cornwall, NY, totaling over 15,000 sq ft. of what will become performance spaces, art galleries, and community hubs. We anticipate programming both sites all 12 months each year, meaning that we have an opportunity to provide up to 50 apprenticeships, internships, and part-time jobs to veterans and immediate family members.

Our proposed apprenticeship, internship and part-time jobs program represents a fresh approach to both advancing our organizational objectives and supporting veterans in the arts. It addresses a notable gap by providing specialized training in theater production, an area often overlooked in veteran support initiatives. We also aim to create an inclusive environment that encourages veterans to participate across various theater roles, be it backstage, front-of-house, or within the rehearsal space.

Your support for VetRep is an investment in a brighter future for our veterans and the cultural landscape. Together, we can create meaningful opportunities, challenge stereotypes, and enrich lives through the power of theater.
