2025 YEAR IN REVIEW
SEE WHAT YOU MADE POSSIBLE
WOODSTOCK ARTS COMMUNITY,
As I reflect on 2025, I’m filled with gratitude and awe for what we accomplished together. This past year was defined not just by programs and performances, but by people. Artists, audiences, students, supporters, partners, and neighbors – all coming together to shape something meaningful.
Woodstock Arts exists because of you.
Because of your belief in creativity, we created spaces where art could be experienced, shared, and celebrated. We amplified local voices, supported artists at every stage, welcomed new audiences, and ensured that the arts remained accessible, vibrant, and deeply woven into the life of our community.
This report is a snapshot of what happened through your generosity, advocacy, and engagement in 2025. I hope you are proud of what you made possible.
As you explore this page, I invite you to remember this:
every number represents a person with a story, each story makes the creative heartbeat of Woodstock.
Thank you for showing up.
Thank you for believing in the arts.
Thank you for being part of this incredible community.
With deep appreciation,
Christopher Brazelton

ECONOMIC IMPACT
Where do funds come from?
Uncommon to most non-profit arts organizations, Woodstock Arts receives most of it’s funding from earned revenue, like Ticket Sales, Class Registration, Concessions, Venue Rentals, etc.
77% Earned Revenue. 23% Contributed Revenue.
23% of the revenue is contributed, comprised of Sponsorships, Individual Gifts, and grants from Foundations and Agencies. Woodstock Arts earning the majority of it’s income means that every dollar you give has a true impact; going further faster to advance to gorw our community. Be a part here.
2026. A YEAR OF IMPACT.
The arts have the unique power to turn a neighborhood into a home. I am proud to look back on a year full of memories and experiences at Woodstock Arts that exemplify this. As we look toward the new year, our goal is to magnify the everyday impact we see through sharing experiences, building community, fostering creative partnerships, and ensuring our growth is as sustainable as it is vibrant.
Creativity is a primary source of belonging, and we are dedicated to ensuring that our work leaves a lasting impact on the place we call home. Together, we are ensuring that the arts remain a vibrant, vital force, helping our community to create and flourish for years to come. I am so grateful to all who join us in this endeavor, and can’t wait to see what the new year will bring.
