  San Diego Magazines Best Art and Sew Class for Kids!

     Join us for some creative art and sew time! Students of all levels and all ages are welcome! With Paint Box Art Studio, I will foster the same loving and supportive relationship between our students and art. The name pays homage to my favorite childhood book : Panda Bear's Paint Box. The Illustrator Christopher Santoro really knows his stuff(!).. The way the paint is illustrated is so bright and shiny; it jumps off the page. As a child, I would stare at his pictures for hours.

  Globe for All Tour

     Since the inception of the Globe for All Tour in 2014, approximately 16,000 community members have experienced a performance. These tours offer free-of-charge admission to shows in nontheatrical venues such as gymnasiums, cafeterias, shelters, senior centers, refugee community centers, military installations, and correctional facilities, and give audiences an intimate and compelling theatrical experience that fosters a shared sense of connection between performers and audiences. The majority of attendees are experiencing live theatre for the very first time. What is Globe for All? The Old Globe tours a professional theatre production around community partners in San Diego and Tijuana for free performances, workshops, talkbacks, and catered meals. The fall tour is a three-week Shakespeare tour designed and directed for the road. The spring tour is a one-week tour of a show from our mainstage that is adapted for travel. Since the program’s inception in 2014, approximately 15,900 community members have experienced a Globe for All Tour. Performed free of charge in non-theatrical venues such as gymnasiums, cafeterias, shelters, senior centers, refugee community centers, military installations, and correctional facilities, these productions give audiences an intimate and compelling theatrical experience that fosters a shared sense of connection between performers and audiences. The majority of attendees face barriers to accessing professional performing arts and often experience live theatre for the very first time. If you have a community group or organization that effectively centers and serves a marginalized group in San Diego or Tijuana and you would like to discuss hosting a performance, or any questions about reservations, seats, or specific venur information, please email AEinfo@theoldglobe.org or call our Box Office at 619-234-5623.
