Lynn M. Hamilton, Academy of Children’s Theatre (ACT)

“The Academy of Children’s Theatre has been creating memorable theatre educational experiences for children for over a decade. Students learn compassion, teamwork, confidence, and self-awareness. Students from all walks of life and ability work together to create art. Lynn Hamilton is the director of the Academy of Children’s Theatre. She has created exceptional theatre experiences through high-quality performances by students. Lynn had a difficult year due to the loss of her sister, yet she maintained the sterling standards of wholesome theatre education that the Springs has relied on for over a decade. Lynn is a kind and hardworking person and is so deserving of this award.”
