Project details

What we need
  • A list of the common issues along with the prioritization of both severity and impact of the accessibility issues found
  • List of areas that do not meet the Section 508, ADA, WCAG 2.0 guidelines
  • Specific recommendations to improve product accessibility their priority level (low, medium, and high priority)
  • Estimated time needed to fix current compliance issues
What we have in place
  • We've recently worked with our design company to revamp our website and are seeking an experienced professional to advise on accessibility, so that our whole community can access our site.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,212 , allowing us to provide a better website experience to all who wish to access our website and enjoy the work of our nonprofit.

It is important to provide access to all of our community and is also a part of our grant applications, which in turn will help us support artists and our local communities.

Our mission

Creating, sustaining, and defending spaces for live performance; as well as the communities they serve. The smaller the better.

What we do

There are far more artists who need a 49 seat theater, than can use a 490 seat theater; yet it is these smaller theaters that are the hardest to keep alive. We are partnering with local communities to create and run a network of 49-99 seat performance parlors that can promote the growth of local artists, while providing a touring route for up and coming national performers. Our flagship theater in San Francisco has been open since 2011, running 250+ shows a year; servicing 1,000's of artists and over 10,000 patrons annually. We just opened our second space in Santa Rosa, and are currently researching the location of our third theater. We also provide free consultation services to community performance spaces struggling to survive; and someday hope to provide legal and financial assistance as well.
