Mission StageWorks is a San Francisco-based arts education and community center dedicated to bringing people together through theatre and performance training, storytelling, creative expression, and community enrichment. We cultivate a love for the stage, how to use it for expression, and a sharing of stories created by Bay Area people. By providing a place for people to connect with a platform to uplift individual and collective voices, we strive to make a positive impact on the community and supercharge the human spirit.

We imagine a hub for people from all over the Bay Area to come together to exchange knowledge, skills, ideas, stories to build memories - personal and artistic. It intends to be the artistic bazaar where crossroads ignite creativity and a sharing of culture.

Our plan is offer:

  • arts education class and workshops
  • community events and engagements
  • local artist support and development
  • presentation and productions

Our vision is to be an arts community center, a home for creativity and connection for Bay Area people to experience arts through accessible and inclusive programs. Innovative, inspiring performances are symbols of the people we serve and the landscape we inhabit. We see a vibrant, welcoming family of seekers and practitioners learning from and with one another, building relationships, and celebrating our diverse city together through a love of the arts.

Garance's Birthday Fundraiser for Mission Stageworks

Instead of a party this year, I’m choosing to celebrate by supporting something I care deeply about. I’m fundraising $500 for Mission StageWorks—a company I sit on the board of that is building something truly special: a space where storytelling, art, and community come together in a way that feels inclusive, human, and meaningful. If you’ve ever believed in the power of stories to bring people closer, or in the beauty of creating spaces rooted in care and connection, I’d be so grateful for your support. This will help launch one of our very first programs—and that feels pretty magical.

Rob's Fundraiser for Theatre and Storytelling in SF

It’s happening! I’m incredibly excited to announce that Mission StageWorks is officially launching its first programs! I have been working on this with a talented team to make this moment real and it’s finally here. Mission StageWorks is a San Francisco-based community hub that gathers people through theatre and storytelling. We’re going to offer accessible classes, events, and creative experiences to share who we are in innovative, expansive ways. We create possibilities for people to engage in the arts to find meaning, strength, and connection. And we need your help to get there. This is a grassroots pursuit. Every dollar raised goes directly to our first programs, which means  compensating local teaching artists, securing spaces, and providing accessible ways to bring people into the room. Your donation makes a visible impact on opening the doors to our neighbors, families and friends. I believe in Mission StageWorks because I believe in the potential of the human spirit. When stories reveal our truth, when creativity is unleashed, when we turn to face each other, that is when we find community - and a joy in what we can do together. Put the heart in your art and let’s launch Mission StageWorks.
