Lottery Entry - Hamilton: An American Musical - Galapagos on Broadway (Grades 5th-8) Sun Mar 29th

We are excited to announce the next installment of Galapagos on Broadway — our third trip to see Hamilton: An American Musical!

This year, 12 scholars (grades 5–8) will be selected through a lottery to receive the opportunity to sign up for this trip.

To ensure fairness and equal opportunity for all scholars, we will be using a lottery system for this Galapagos on Broadway trip. Because we anticipate high interest, the lottery allows every interested scholar a fair chance to attend. Galapagos on Broadway exposes students to dynamic fine-arts performances and powerful storytelling that broaden their perspectives and inspire curiosity, and we want every scholar to have the opportunity to experience it.

How to Enter the Lottery    
Parents can enter their scholar into the lottery by adding Hamilton to their cart and entering their scholar's name.
Deadline to sign up: Wednesday December 17th, 2025
Scholars selected will be announced on Thursday December 18th, 2025

Parents of selected scholars must submit the $15 payment on Thursday December 18th to secure their spot. If payment is not received on that date, the spot will be offered to the next scholar on the list.
