Advertising Opportunities

Advertising in USITT publications raises awareness of your products, programs, services, or employment openings. Display advertising is available in USITT's premier journal TD&T, the annual Membership Directory & Resource Guide, and the Conference & Stage Expo Program. Employment offerings are publicized in JobsUSITT, a new web-based employment listings service. There are over 3,600 USITT members; most are involved in the purchasing of equipment and supplies for the businesses, educational institutions, and performing arts facilities where they are employed. Advertising in USITT publications is an effective marketing tool.

TD&T

TD&T (Theatre Design & Technology) is a four-color journal offering in-depth, informative articles in a variety of our members’ interest areas, including: architecture, costume design and technology, education, engineering, health and safety, lighting, management, scene design, sound design, and technical production. TD&T also includes book reviews, product evaluations, and two regular columns -- one is about Institute affairs and the other, by Beeb Salzer, contains his observations about life in the theatre. According to a professional survey, TD&T is the entertainment periodical most frequently read by individual USITT members.

Membership Directory & Resource Guide

The Membership Directory contains a complete contact listing for every USITT member. Information on USITT By-Laws and history, member discounts, special projects and programs is also included. The Membership Directory is used extensively as a reference throughout the year.
