Nurturing positive growth

in ourselves, in our community, in our city, in our world.

​

Providing a platform for unfettered expression

for artists and works that question and challenge our current systems; we view controversy as an opportunity for positive growth.

 

Encouraging analytical dialogue 

processing the reactions caused by experimental actions and turning them into fuel for positive change and growth.

​

Taking intentional and calculated risks 

providing a platform for daring art that creates new pathways in previously unblazed territory, while being responsible to the safety of our artists, audience and partners.

​

Honoring personal integrity

in all of our own actions and in the actions of our artists, our audience, and our partners; respecting and honoring each other’s individuality and personal power.

Exemplifying respect and compassion

in all of our interactions and relationships within our community and with our artists, audience, and partners.
