This has been a year of transformation for Piknik Theatre. After 18 years of extraordinary leadership, our founder Stuart Handloff has stepped into retirement, leaving behind a legacy of generosity, vision, and a belief that theatre belongs to everyone. For nearly two decades, he never once took a salary — a profound act of service that gave our community the gift of free, professional theatre.

Now, it is up to us — together — to carry his vision forward.Your gift today ensures that:Equal access to Summer Shakespeare at the Branham Amphitheater, bringing hundreds of families together every summer.Youth programs at the Boys & Girls Club & local schools, providing free theatre classes that build creativity and confidence.Maintenance and Management of The Branham Amphitheater, Steamboat Springs ONLY outdoor, world-class theatre.

Every Gift Makes a DifferenceWhether you give $50, $500, or join our Shakespeare’s Giving Globe Circle with a gift of $1,000+, you become part of the story. Like the groundlings and patrons of Shakespeare’s Globe, every supporter plays a role in keeping the stage alive.

Together, We Build the FuturePiknik Theatre has always been more than a stage — it is a community. With your help, we can honor Stuart’s legacy, nurture the next generation of artists, and ensure that the Yampa Valley remains a vibrant home for theatre for generations to come.

Please make your end-of-year gift today. Your generosity keeps the lights on, the curtain rising, and the arts alive for all.

With gratitude,

Celina Taylor
