Project Description
Developmental Disabilities Service Organization seeks CAC funding to help establish ALL IN: The Festival of Accessible Theater as an annual cultural event in the Sacramento region. DDSO launched the festival in 2024 as an outreach project funded by a Creative Corps grant. Given the community’s positive response, DDSO will present a second festival in late June of this year. CAC grant funding would support a third festival in June 2026.
Grant funds would help compensate the festival’s artistic and administrative directors; audio describers for festival performances; speaker fees for the Forum on Accessible Theater during the festival; venue rental; photography, videography and graphic design services; and printing and advertising.
Grant funding would also support training in technical and performance skills for actors from Short Center Repertory, InnerVision Theater and Theater V58.
Organization Summary
DDSO runs a multidisciplinary art center serving Sacramento County, and one life skills program for adults with severe and profound disabilities. Outreach programs include a touring theatre company (The Short Center Repertory) and an online archive of artists with developmental disabilities.
