OUR MISSION
Piknik Theatre creates professional, entertaining, and inclusive performing arts in the Yampa Valley. We believe and encourage the accessibility of the performing arts for everyone through free productions.
We believe in the immense power, value, and influence of arts education and have created opportunities for our professional artists to teach workshops, educate through our school systems, and engage with audiences of all ages.
