Theater has the unique power to inspire us. As we welcome 2025, may we each strive to be a source of inspiration for one another, fostering a world rooted in respect, sincerity, and humanity.
Best wishes for a bright and inspiring New Year!
Boris and Ināra Teterev Foundation
The Boris and Ināra Teterev Foundation continues its support of the annual theatre award “Spēlmaņu Nakts” ceremony, held this year at the Valmiera Theatre. The foundation also is funding new Valmiera Theatre productions and has co-financed the creation of the Krodera Ābele (Kroders’ Apple Tree) environmental design object - a tribute to Oļģerts Kroders, the artistic director, actor, stage art educator, and former director of Valmiera Theatre (1964–1974, 2001–2012).
