Art is for everyone, regardless of demographics or geography.


Just as it sounds, we bridge all the arts together: music, dance, theatre, performance art, film, poetry, and visual art.


Over the Bridge Arts is committed to:

  • Supporting new works and new artists from all genres by providing compensation and a platform for their work

  • Representing the community by including artists and audiences from all cultures, ethnicities, genders, generations and sexual identities

  • Creating a safe space for every person to share their voice
