     Mission Statement: The purpose of this organization shall be to create an environment in which students can actively explore and promote the diverse art of Theatre. In order to facilitate this, each semester Ink Blot Arts will offer many different events and activities such as: full-fledged productions, improv workshops, monologue/audition workshops, pieces of activist theater, open mic nights, movie nights, etc.  This offers students additional training, guidance, and opportunities in theatrical production and the world of theatre. As a result, more students will get hands-on experience in theatrical production as a complement to the California State University, Chico's Department of Theatre Arts' production calendar. This company will be entirely student-run and our productions will be entirely student-produced. This organization does not wish to compete with the Department of Theatre Arts; we shall only augment the department's season after it is announced and its shows have been cast. One of the beauties of theater is that it has the power to both entertain and educate. Ink Blot Arts shall take full advantage of this as we help to educate students in theatrical production and technique, explore truths about ourselves and the human condition, strive for social change through theater, and above all, have fun along the way.
