Outreach Programs

Marin Shakespeare Company offers free and low cost tickets, workshops and programs to a variety of social service organizations, schools, and low-income populations.

Free Shakespeare Drama Classes and Camps

We offer free Shakespeare summer camps for underserved youth from Marin City in conjunction with Performing Stars of Marin and for youth from the Canal neighborhood in conjunction with Canal Alliance, Pickleweed Community Center, San Pedro School and Bahia Vista School. We also offer free or low-cost in-schools drama and Shakespeare programs which have served Bahia Vista Elementary School, Lynwood Elementary School, San Pedro Elementary School, Venetia Valley Elementary School and others. We are happy to discuss further opportunities to bring Shakespeare to those who would not otherwise have the opportunity.
