Citizen Artist Program

Our Citizen Artist Program partners with local public schools in Marin County to bring standards-based dance and theatre education into the classroom. We collaborate with teachers and administrators to tailor programming to meet the unique educational and cultural needs of our students. The curriculum aligns with SSPA’s commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion, spans cross-cultural music and dance for students K-12, and meets the California Arts Standards for Dance and Theatre.

To develop a Citizen Artist Program at your school, please email Wilhelmina Frankfurt, Executive Artistic Director: wilhelmina@stapletonschool.org
