ARTA is your Association of Regional Theatre Artists.
Our mission is to provide our members with community, advocacy, education and opportunity, enhancing the richness of the live theatre produced in Western New York. We are committed to identifying and eliminating unfair and unsafe practices in our industry. We foster equity, camaraderie, and community among our members in order to enrich, inspire, and empower them to advocate for themselves, their work, and each other.
