ABOUT US
Still Point is a dynamic community of Chicago-based artists who use theatre to uplift, inform and inspire. We serve the community through two main branches of programming: producing original professional plays, and providing arts outreach programs to marginalized communities. These communities include adults with developmental disabilities, currently and formerly incarcerated women, and senior citizens.We strongly believe that making art is a basic human right. This creative expression also yields tangible benefits. It contributes to a more progressive and connected society. It supports innovation and is a catalyst for systemic change. We have observed time and again the powerful synergy that happens when groups of people collectively engage in forging thoughts and feelings into works of art. This is why we make our plays accessible to diverse audiences. This is why we are deeply invested in our outreach programs. We all matter, and art matters for all of us.
