We give back: We are dedicated to donating the large portion of our ticket revenue to non-profit organizations that align with the causes highlighted in our projects. This includes supporting our collaborators on these projects.

We facilitate: We believe that offering talkbacks is essential to creating a sense of community with our audiences. Therefore, we facilitate discussions with a panel of experts for each of our projects, focusing on the relevant causes. 

We provide: We provide resource guides to all audience members, featuring useful information and links to local non-profit organizations.

At WHC, we advocate for the artists in our community. 

We ensure that all artists we work with are paid competitive wages regardless of their union affiliations. 

We prioritize opportunities for local artists and have an open selection process for proposals. This gives directors, playwrights, dancers, and artists a chance to bring their ideas to us. This also means we always hold auditions for applicable projects.

We nurture the artist community by creating community events with the intention of fostering meaningful connections across artistic mediums. 

WHC is committed to being an equitable organization that respects and honors all voices, upholding the values of community, equity, access, and belonging. We recognize that racism is deeply ingrained in American society, arts, and culture. We are dedicated to ensuring that the artists featured in our productions represent a diverse range of backgrounds and perspectives.

We offer tickets to our productions at discounted community rates and provide complimentary tickets to select community groups when available. This ensures that our events are accessible to all.

We directly engage with communities affected by the material we partner with to invite them to our projects at discounted or complimentary rates providing unique talkback experiences for each audience. 

We value process over product to keep both the art and its social cause at the forefront of our productions. This fosters creativity and intentionality. 

We conduct a post-mortem process for each project to facilitate growth and learning for all involved.

We prioritize providing resources and space that gives artists time to make discoveries and grow in their art making.

WHC is committed to transparency. We maintain a public archive with a post-production report to ensure openness with the public. All reports are available on our website for viewing at any time.
