The Gary Grossman Community Co-Op Program would allow the company to provide 80 weeks of rent-free space and venue staff support for individual artists, independent producers, and itinerant theater companies with limited resources. The five-year model is expected to impact at least 20 Los Angeles-based small itinerant theater companies and many more independent artists.

The program would simultaneously provide participants the opportunity to mount their productions at the historic Skylight Theatre and increase arts and culture programming available to Skylight audiences.

As the visionary behind Skylight since 2000, Gary Grossman has nurtured an extraordinary body of work, championing diverse voices and producing bold, award-winning productions that have earned the company critical acclaim.

Our board of directors has designated a special fund that offers a unique opportunity to honor Gary’s legacy and term of service by contributing to an annuity gift. The capital invested in this fund will generate interest that will support Gary in his endeavors after Skylight.
