Ambition, growth, creativity, collaboration, and connection are themes that illustrate the year 2014 for Wolf Trap Foundation. From a refreshed new look to innovative programming, we are taking to heart our mission to present and create excellent and innovative performing arts programs for the enrichment, education, and enjoyment of diverse audiences and participants. We welcomed close to half a million people to the Filene Center, Children’s Theatre inthe-Woods, and our intimate Barns during 2014. The summer’s beautiful weather made for a magical backdrop for audiences to take in a variety of pop, rock, classical, jazz, country, and R&B music, as well as comedy, opera, musical theatre, and dance offerings. Behind the scenes, Wolf Trap’s professional teaching artists enriched the lives of our youngest learners through groundbreaking education programs in the D.C. region and across the country. The passion and generous support of Wolf Trap Foundation’s donors and patrons drive us to do more and do it better. Thank you for your enthusiasm as we steward this exciting work for you and our community. We pledge to continue our work lifting the human spirit through music, dance, and the splendor of the many performing arts and education programs we offer. In the meantime, please enjoy this 2014 report. We look forward to seeing you at Wolf Trap soon. Sincerely,
Daniel D’Aniello Chairman of the Board of Directors
Arvind Manocha President and CEO

After 39 years, Ann McKee, Wolf Trap’s Senior Vice President, Performing Arts and Education, retired in January 2014. In commemoration of Ann’s tremendous career and her unwavering dedication throughout her Wolf Trap tenure, the Foundation established the Ann McKee Fund for Opera. January saw the premiere of Before The Barns, a performing arts class series held prior to performances. Students of all ages learned from experts in Djembe drumming, Indian and salsa dance, and honed their improv skills at a workshop led by members of The Second City.
The endowed fund will provide an enduring source of support for Wolf Trap Opera and help ensure its ongoing legacy of excellence. Foundation staff, friends, and family gathered to honor Ann at a retirement celebration at The Barns. Ann (left) enjoys the event with former Wolf Trap Foundation Board Chair Mary Beggs.
