In 1974, the DC Board of Education approved and established the School of the Arts at Western High School, co-founded by Peggy Cooper Cafritz and Mike Malone. In 1976, the school was renamed "The Duke Ellington School of the Arts at Western." The Ellington Fund, a nonprofit corporation, was established to raise complementary and supplementary funds to support the needs of this unique institution.

For sharing this wonderful theatre, Hexagon salutes the faculty, students, and staff of the Duke Ellington School of the Arts.
