Our commitment to volunteer service is what sets us apart from all other performing arts venues in the area. Students at The Burt Wood School are encouraged to give back to their communities by sharing their time and talent. Whether it's hosting a fashion show for cancer, performing for senior citizens, performing for veterans or at local festivals and charity fund-raisers, caroling at area nursing homes, collecting food for a local pantry, walking for cancer, or reading to children in school, the students of The Burt Wood School share their time and talent with gratitude, goodwill and grace.
