supporting art on the edges
Our Mission
Transforming culture through the arts
Collaborating with edgewalkers
"Story, as it turns out, was crucial to our evolution -- more so than opposable thumbs. Opposable thumbs let us hang on; story told us what to hang on to.”
​
Lisa Cron, Wired for Story
What We Do
Education
Present creative workshops, key note addresses, sermons, and other engagements from seasoned speakers and artists, as well as new voices, focused on the importance of the arts, including theater, comedy, and movement, to educate and inspire human creativity.
Collaboration
Provide a place of belonging and empowerment to support stories the world needs to hear from those walking the edges of dominant culture regarding race, gender, age, or faith tradition. We also seek to develop collaborative creative projects for the healing and wholing of society.

Advocacy
Create the capacity to support the arts, and live theater in particular, in a time of cultural upheaval, when the arts are most needed to question the status quo and shine light on what is emerging. Any community who wants to bring a play to their region ought to be able to do so.
There's no question about it:
the best theater is collaboration.
The best anything is collaboration.
