Hi, and welcome to my fundraising page for March for the Arts 2025! My name is Penelope Meier and I am a SENIOR in the Theatre Department at Duke Ellington School of the Arts!! Over the last three years, Ellington has not only helped me grow as an artist but also as a person. The community I have built here is like no other; Ellington has become my “other family”. Because it is my senior year, the funds I raise through March for the Arts will go directly to the shows that my class puts on this year. The funds will also support masterclasses with industry professionals and tickets to shows in DC and NYC. These incredible experiences would not be possible without additional funding and community support. Therefore, I kindly ask you to consider donating any amount that you can, this one last time, to help fund the last year of my journey at Duke Ellington School of the Arts. Thank you so much for your time and support over the last several years!
