education programs
WASHINGTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater named Maggie
FitzPatrick, Exelon’s senior vice president of Corporate Affairs,
Philanthropy and Customer Engagement, as one of four new members to its
Board of Trustees. Located in Southwest Washington, the theater stages
productions that explore issues reflecting America’s diversity and
challenges and provides community and education programs that train
future artists and educators, engage students and invite younger, more
diverse audiences.
“Arena Stage operates at the center for American theater in the
nation’s capital with a rich history of presenting works by bold and
diverse voices,” FitzPatrick said. “Exelon is committed to
supporting organizations that lift all voices and enhance
communities. I am honored to support the important work of Arena
Stage and its Board of Trustees.”
Arena Stage is one of the nation’s flagship theaters. Founded in 1950,
it was one of the first nonprofit theaters in the U.S. and a pioneer of
the regional theater movement. The theater has nurtured and produced 22
shows that have appeared on Broadway, including “Dear Evan Hansen,”
which won the 2017 Tony Award for Best Musical.
FitzPatrick is a life-long supporter of the arts. In addition to her
work with Arena Stage, she is a strong advocate for equality and
diversity and inclusion. She also serves on the boards of the National
Partnership for Women and Families and Achilles International.
FitzPatrick was named one of the most powerful people in public
relations by PR Week Magazine in multiple years.
