Scholarships and Grants

Troupe Development Grants

Apply Here!
The Troupe Development Grant supports the diverse needs of troupes across the state, making participation possible for more schools and students in Indiana. Each grant is up to $300, which can be used to fund attendance at our Leadership Conference, hire a guest artist for workshops or training, charter or reinstate a Thespian troupe, or provide professional development for the troupe director. Indiana Thespians has allocated a total of $3,000 to be distributed through these grants.

Troupes may apply for the grant at any point during the year until all funds have been awarded.
Applicants will be notified of their grant status within two weeks of submission.

Thespian Scholarships

Apply Here!
​Each year, Indiana seniors who are inducted Thespians may audition to receive a share of the $4000 in scholarships awarded by EdTA and Indiana Thespians. The link for submissions will be available closer to state conference. 

Please note that this application is the same form that is used for the College Audition program.
