Sacramento State's Theatre & Dance Department is more than just a place to learn—it's a vibrant community where students transform into compassionate, innovative artist-scholars. Our students don't just study performance; they build meaningful connections and develop skills that will shape their futures and impact our community.
In our classrooms and on our stages, students discover their potential as citizen artists. They learn to tell powerful stories that bring people together, challenge perspectives, and create positive change. From backstage technical work to center-stage performances, each student brings unique experiences that strengthen our creative community. They develop not just artistic skills, but critical thinking, collaboration, and a deep commitment to making a difference.
Your generosity can help these dedicated students turn their dreams into reality. By supporting the Theatre & Dance program, you provide resources that help students persist towards their degrees, explore their creativity, and develop the skills needed to become leaders in their field. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps create opportunities for students to thrive, learn, and grow.
Give today and help our students write their next chapter. Your support doesn't just fund a program—it fuels the potential of future artists who will inspire, challenge, and transform our world.
Thank you for believing in the power of our students.
"It was my time at Sac State which infused the work ethic and determination needed to excel in the small field of professional theatre. My success is Sac State's success, and I am eternally grateful to them." - Sean Nill, BA Theatre, 2013
“They say it takes a village to raise a child, but without the support of that village where would that child be? The purpose of the arts is to share and explore, without the support of our community, we will not survive. The gift of your donation grants my peers and I the privilege to share our vision of the world with the community.” - Saida Findley, BA Dance, 2019
