ATG Awarded
“Excellence in the Arts”

We are thrilled to announce that ATG has been awarded an Excellence in the Arts award bestowed by the Somerset County Cultural and Heritage Commission. Since 2006, the biennial program has honored individuals and organizations that show exemplary leadership and dedication to the fine and performing arts in Somerset County. ATG was recognized in the "Arts in the Community" category and was presented with the award during the Oct. 26th ceremony at the Sieminski Theater.

ATG strives to improve the lives of New Jersey residents every day, by intertwining unique arts, culture, and educational offerings with the community. Our high-quality artistic productions are meant to be enjoyed, as well as inspire thought and conversation after patrons leave the theater. It is very fulfilling to see our mission and efforts acknowledged, especially by the Somerset County Commission, which has long-supported our work.

Wicked Benefit — Oct. 1st, 2023

We are pleased to share some photos from our very special Benefit which raised funds for ATG programs. This incredible event began with a performance of the smash Broadway hit Wicked followed by a reception at a nearby restaurant. The event was attended by ATG Board Member Michele Pawk and her husband John Dossett, currently starring in the musical as Madame Morrible and the Wizard, as well as some of their cast mates. Special guest Susan Hilferty, a top costume designer who received a Tony Award for Wicked, kindly presented special costume sketches to John and Michele (pictured below).

In addition, Zoe Rivera, one of the high school students who participated in our New Works/New Voices playwriting program, was another special guest. Zoe spoke about how the program helped expose her to the arts and gave her the confidence to pursue a BFA at Marymount College.

We were thrilled for the opportunity to provide our ATG Board members and supporters with access to this "insider event." Their support allows us to continue producing outstanding productions and arts education programs for the community.
