Ovations Plus

 Ovations was created with the mission to advance a more inclusive, vibrant, and prominent NWA/Delta region by unifying small performing arts organization s into a single, well-resourced arts champion, better equipped to deliver culture-changing initiatives, starting with the merger between Tricycle Theatre for Youth (Trike) and the Arkansas Philharmonic and Orchestra (APO).

By merging together under the Ovations name, these two separate brands further the donor dollar without diluting their common goals of increasing the region’s access to high quality programming in the performing arts.  

The Ovations’ mission has three core tenets:

1. Everyone Belongs

2. Stronger Together

3. Courageous Creativity

And these three areas are put into action through:

1. Outreach

2. Education

3. Production

This is how we stand together.

As a 501(c)3, Ovations is committed to providing performing arts education and access to the NWA/Delta region with as few financial barriers as possible. However, grants and ticket sales are not enough to ensure our programming will reach classrooms, provide scholarships to talented students, and train educators in the performing arts as the population of this region continues to grow.

We also need you.
