Membership
Being a producer and arts educator has taught me firsthand the power of the performing
arts to shape and transform young people's lives. IPAY gives us the golden opportunity
to connect—with our colleagues, with artists and educators, and by extension with
young people across the world—thereby staying informed and raising the bar for
excellence and innovation in youth programming together. I am proud to be a member of
IPAY, and grateful for all they contribute to our industry.
—Emma Walton Hamilton, Showcase 2008 Keynote Speaker
