With support from the California Arts Council, DAVIS SHAKESPEARE ENSEMBLE INC will fund staff salaries and space rental. DSF’s primary program for 2023-2025 will be Vacancy Arts Collective (VAC). VAC’s mission is to cultivate community joy by aligning socially conscious art with equitable practice. To fulfill this mission, we will continue to engage with community partners to produce works that explore aspects of identity and culture, largely through the lens of the performing and media arts.
Our core program is VACANCY ARTS COLLECTIVE. Vacancy Arts Collective’s mission is to cultivate community joy by aligning socially conscious art with equitable practice.
The focus of the project is on process and “people first” practices. VAC produces works that align with the identities of the artists and team members involved with each production, thereby expanding the types of artistic projects produced by DSF.
