Community Engagement Programs
Hult Center Community Resource Group
The Hult Center Community Resource Group creates and holds space for historically marginalized and/or underrepresented communities to gather and converse; empowering individuals to participate, share knowledge and support the art they want to experience; thereby making the Hult Center and the programs safe and accessible for all.
Community Conversations
Community Conversations are free non-ticketed events and podcast episodes inspired by Hult Presents shows. Our intention with these conversations is to go a little deeper by interviewing community members on subjects related to select performances and invite attendees to join in conversation.
Please listen to our latest podcast episode where we talk with two local transgender community members who share their coming out stories, the ways TransPonder has been a valuable and lifesaving resource, about their book group which emerged during Covid Lockdown and how allies can support trans people here in Eugene.
Passport to Adventure
The Changemaker Speaker Series kicks off November 2024! We are excited to welcome local businesses and organizations with sustainability and care for our planet at their core to participate as community partners in a special pre-show tabling event called Passport to Adventure, which provides the opportunity for patrons to engage with local changemakers.
Come early and grab a Passport to Adventure in the Hult Lobby before the show. Don’t miss the chance to meet local changemakers, learn about their amazing work, and receive a stamp in your passport! Doors open at 6 pm.
Community Partner Highlight
The Hult Center works with local organizations to create enriching opportunities in our communities. We have worked with community partners to create everything from book clubs to workshops to backstage experiences.
Our latest community partner highlight is with Ophelia’s Place. OP is a nonprofit dedicated to empowering girls* ages 10-18. Girls today are dealing with so much. OP is here to support them, encourage them, guide them, and help them tap into their innate power so they can manage life’s challenges and thrive. OP youth had the opportunity to connect with Broadway’s Mean Girls performers through the Community Conversation podcast and a Dance Masterclass. In addition, a group attended opening night through our Bridge to Broadway program.
