Bridges Festival | Garage Arts Project

Bridges is Garage Arts Project’s flagship multidisciplinary festival, built on collaboration, dialogue, and shared creation. The festival brings together commissioned works by artists across movement, music, and the spoken word, developed through a deeply process oriented and collective approach. Bridges creates space for artists and audiences to come together, experience new work, and engage with stories that connect us across disciplines and lived experiences.

Applications for our next cohort of Bridges will open in June 2026. If you are an artist interested in collaborating, creating new work, or being part of this growing community, we invite you to stay connected. Sign up for our newsletter and follow along for updates, announcements, and opportunities to be part of the next edition of Bridges.
