PACT

Our Art for Autism Showcase was a great success!

 Welcome to Positive Action Community Theatre (PACT).  Our mission is to empower individuals and create community through the expressive arts.  Hundreds of children with and without disabilities have enjoyed our Goldmine Expressive Arts  workshops since we began programs in May of 2008.

Here is what Liam's Mom had to say about Liam's experience at Goldmine Workshops:

“Liam is accepted, included and encouraged to participate at his comfort level. I have seen him introduce himself to a group using clear, socially appropriate speech! I have seen him use his imagination to create scenarios and learn lines to perform simple skits. Every week he asks if he is going back to his drama class, and every week I see his confidence and self-esteem grow. PACT is one of those rare places where my son is valued for who he is."

We believe that everyone is an artist, and discovering and developing our talents and interests is essential to a happy life.

Goldmine workshops create a safe space for children to learn vital life skills, explore and express their artistic natures, and make new friends.

Do you have a child who would benefit from expressive arts and life skills training? 

Parents attend our Saturday, one-hour Goldmine Workshops  with their children. 

One-on-one preparation and coaching sessions are  available if needed.

PACT is proud to be an affiliate of KIT (Kids Included Together) and is receiving the benefit of their excellent training in inclusion and best practices for serving children of all abilities.

We are preparing for our first ever teen 8-week workshop series, starting Saturday, July 11th, and ending Saturday, August 29th, from 2:00 - 3:00 P.M., at Dance North County in Encinitas.  Response has been great, and the program wil close very soon.   This workshop series will focus primarily on acting (and social skills training), but will also offer movement and yoga.  As always this is an inclusive program, with children on the autism spectrum and typical children participating together.  The 8-week workshop series will conclude with an optional performance.

Our plan is to offer two more 8-week teen workshop series during the upcoming school year.

Please note:  the time of our Children's Saturday Goldmine workshops has changed.  It is now being held from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. at Dance North County in Encinitas. 

Our goal is to encourage:

self esteem

creativity

fitness

&

cooperation

We do this through skits, improv, dance, movement,  mime, and yoga.
