Developing space and spirit for life in the Eastmorland Neighborhood
Mission Statement
The Eastmorland Community Center was founded on a vision of bringing people together for life-giving work. Our mission is to create space for the collaborative life of the neighborhood. We value the arts, education, and social justice work for what it brings to the lives of the residents of Eastmorland and our school community. We strive to support groups and programs engaged in valuable life-affirming work and to be a gathering place for people to come together in community. We value bringing people into the life of the building as a whole so that we build community as we create a hub for the amazing things happening in the Eastmorland Neighborhood.

A not-for-profit community theatre–primarily volunteer run–whose mission is to celebrate and advance queer representation through theatre written by and about LGBTQ+ persons. StageQ was founded in 2001 in order to provide a stable home for gay and lesbian-themed plays in the broader Madison community. StageQ is a resident of the Bartell Community Theatre where we produce 3-5 productions annually. We serve as a home for queer artists to tell their stories on stage and allow queer audiences the ability to see themselves and their lives represented on stage.
Kindling Community Arts is a place to fuel creative spirits. We envision a world filled with imaginative thinkers who take care of each other and our earth. Kindling is a place for the artist inside all of us to build creative confidence, explore curiosities, and grow community. We offer arts exploration classes, studio memberships, and a small gathering space. The studio is stocked with creative reuse supplies for tinkering and making, as well as traditional visual arts materials.
