Apply now for the L K Boutin Grant

Thank you for your continued support of live theatre and the rich history of community theatre in Iowa.  One of ICTA’s goals is to help financially in this support through the L K Boutin Grant.  ICTA was honored with a major endowment that allows us to assist in this effort. To date this legacy has given out over $42,000. 

L K Boutin was a founder of ICTA, who passed in 1985 and left a portion of his estate to the organization to carry on the work of development of community theatre in Iowa. Since his death the Board has awarded grants of up to $500 to member theatres in support of specific projects.

Applications are now being accepted for grants to be awarded for the calendar year 2026. The deadline for receiving grant requests is October 15, 2025. All grants must be post marked or emailed by this date.
