Founded in 1980, the ART develops new talent, plays, audiences and ideas while also
celebrating and revivifying the great plays of the past. The ART provides a safe place
where people of all ages, genders, races, and beliefs can create unsafe theatre– thinking people’s theatre-- theatre
that transforms.
We continually respect, and challenge:
- ourselves as actors, designers, artists & visionaries to achieve more,
- our audiences as thinking and feeling human beings to engage more,
- other local theaters and arts organizations to collaborate more, and by doing so, help nurture and develop Gainesville, Florida into the center of arts and culture in North Central Florida.
Join the Acrosstown Family!
The ART is a completely volunteer-run organization, and we’d love for
