with your support, we're building accessibility, equity, diversity & Belonging

This year, we're aiming to hit phase two of our Dream Theater Expansion, including installed auditorium-style rows, more accessible seating for all bodies, and a lobby space to allow more connection-rich opportunities to bolster community!

Your support this year also builds our Equity Fund, which r
eimburses Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) for the extra effort of representation in a predominantly white space by providing 50% or 100% off classes for students and 25% increased pay for teachers. In 2024, we invested over $20,000 into diversity and equity initiatives. Your support is vital to making these initiatives sustainable for our small arts nonprofit.

With mind-blowing community support in 2024, we unlocked the $115,000 matching grant from the Massachusetts Cultural Council to begin phase one in building our Dream Theater this summer. Our new theater will have a fully accessible stage, an improv-friendly set, improved lighting, and expanded audience seating. Your support helps us fulfill out mission to use the tenets of improvisation as a tool to amplify each person’s authentic voice and creativity in an inclusive, welcoming community inspired and empowered by the diversity of all members.

Thank you for making the Happy Valley HAPPIER!

"HVC means community.  Through the classes and workshops I have taken, I have encountered a plethora of friends whom I might not have met otherwise.

HVC means village.  Through HVC, I have found 'my people,' playful, young-at-heart, brave adults willing to be vulnerable and just plain silly.

Through improv I've managed to shed my protective skin and
rediscover the joy of freedom and my true dynamic self."
