Our Team

Matt Freeman, Executive Director

Matt (he/him) fell in love with theatre since early productions of Charlotte’s Web, Peter Pan, and The Sound of Music presented a space where his emotions mattered, and taught him that empathy is a super power.

After majoring in Theatre and Arts Administration (self-designed) (Muhlenberg College, B.A. ‘06), Matt got his M.A. in Arts Administration at Teachers College, Columbia University (‘08) before becoming the inaugural Assistant Director for the first M.A. in Applied Theatre in the U.S. at the CUNY School of Professional Studies (and completing that degree program in 2012).

Matt was the first Education Director for Tectonic Theater Project, held the same role at Wingspan Arts, and has managed outreach projects for Red Bull Theater, The Broadway League and the NYC Arts in Education Roundtable.

Since Matt’s involvement with Inspire Change, he has led the transition to what is now CHANGE Arts and is excited, honored, and hopeful to creatively share this planet with you.
