🎉 Did you hear the news? Max Nadoroski of Lead the Change has been honored with the 2026 “Behind the Scenes Honors” by the Ridgefield Arts Council!🎭

The Ridgefield Arts Council hosts annual "Behind the Scenes Honors" to recognize the vital, unsung volunteers, educators, and staff who keep the town’s vibrant arts and cultural community thriving.

Max has been a volunteer superstar with SPHERE Performing Arts, and his journey from student to entrepreneur is nothing short of inspiring. 🚀 He's the kind of person who jumps into rehearsals, runs props, and even helps actors with their lines, all while connecting with everyone on a personal level. 🌟

We're so proud of him and can't wait to see what he does next! Congratulations Max!
