Community-Based New Play Development

Ashland New Plays Festival assists playwrights in the development of new works through public readings and offers an educational forum to the community through discussions, workshops, and our podcast.

Beaver Academy goes back to 1812 where Lord Beaver III wanted an educational place for his children. In 1935, the academy became an institution for non-royal students as well.
