Stand Up & Learn™ is the Nantucket Comedy Festival’s 501(c)(3) nonprofit comedy education program. It empowers youth ages 8-18 to build self-confidence through learning to write and perform original stand-up comedy. This art form provides a wealth of skills that can be applied to the real world, including storytelling, creative writing, interpersonal communication, and public speaking.

Stand Up & Learn™ relies on the generosity of individuals like you to help a child find their funny. Donations go toward tuition-free scholarships that help kids build self-confidence and creative expression by getting onstage
and delivering the comedic material they wrote.
