Haifa International Children's Theater Festival takes place annually on Chol Hamoed Pesach at the Haifa Municipal Theater. Haifa Arts Foundation supports the Children's Theater Festival since its inception. The Foundation has helped various productions and projects and gave awards to artists in different categories: playwrights, directors, actors and actresses, set design, costume design, lighting, incidental music and more. The Festival's jury selects the winners. In recent years, the Foundation awarded the first prize to winners at the Best Children Play category, and bought tickets for underprivileged children.

The Haifa Arts Foundation helps in purchasing tickets for the Haifa International Children's Theater Festival. The tickets are intended for children of Old Brothers, Larger than Life and other associations, in accordance with the recommendations of Haifa Municipality's Social Services Department, which distributes the tickets.

In 2008, the Haifa Arts Foundation helped fund tickets for the Festival's shows, for residents and children of the Sha'ar HaNegev regional council and for the children of the Gaza perimeter who arrived in Haifa to take a breather from the shelling. The Foundation also financed the transportation for the children of Sderot and the Gaza perimeter. The residents of the council enjoyed a coveted and pleasant respite.

In 2018, the Haifa Arts Foundation helped in the purchase of about 370 Festival tickets for the children of Haifa.

In January 2016, at a scholarship awarding ceremony held at the Municipal Conference Hall, HAF awarded a scholarship to Uri Lev, student of the Theater Department of the Performing Arts Center. Mrs. Hedva Almog, Deputy and Substitute Mayor of Haifa; Bracha Sela, Acting Director of the Foundation and Secretary General; Aviva Spiegelstein, Director of Haifa Arts Foundation; scholars and their families attended the event.

This group of theater students produces plays in Arabic, performed to students of Arab schools in Haifa and the surrounding area.

Haifa Arts Foundation assisted Haifa students who study in high schools for theater and cinema, with tuition fees in acting schools. Haifaite artists were awarded theater scholarships at the recommendation of the HAF's Theater Committee. Other scholarships have assisted productions of individual artists.

Theater Project for Students

One of the largest and oldest ventures of the Haifa Arts Foundation is to encourage students in various educational institutions to watch theater performances, as part of the Municipal Theater's subscription project or as part of the Ministry of Education's recommended plays presented to the educational institution.
