ADVOCACY

JOIN NY THESPIANS BOARD |
NY Thespians Board Members help plan activities, events, and initiatives for members. Adult Board Members have the opportunity to serve on one or more committees, including membership, education, fundraising, advocacy, diversity and inclusion, and more! State Thespian Officers (STO) are Junior Thespians and Thespians who plan events and keep students connected. They are the student voice of Thespians! The STO Chair works with the International Thespian Officers (ITO) to share ideas and raise concerns at the international level.
