The Castleton Festival has been heralded in The New York Times as one of the most important new American summer festivals and as a remarkable training ground for the stars of tomorrow. Every year, the Castleton Festival hosts over 100 aspiring artists who work side-by-side with young and seasoned professionals to set the stage for productions and performances viewed by thousands of people from all over the world. That is truly the essence of the Castleton Festival.

Like most nonprofit festivals, ticket sales cover only one third of the cost of producing world-class performances and providing programming, housing and meals for our artists in training. The Castleton Festival can only continue to pursue its mission with the ongoing support of those who share our vision for what the arts and the passion of young people can bring to our extraordinary community.

The Castleton Festival is a 501(c)(3) non-for-profit organization. All donations to the Castleton Festival are tax deductible to the allowable extent of the law.
