Education
Born out of the theater, the Property Master is responsible for sourcing the items that transport audiences to another world, keep an actor’s hands full, and help writers and directors show —not tell — their stories. The Property Master’s creativity comes through designing, building, buying, renting or doing whatever is necessary to create iconic moments. The Education and Outreach Committee has a three-prong focus to enhance these skills and advance the craft: classes, podcasts, and mentorship.
