The amazing Sharon Bridgforth wrote the intro for Sunday’s program:

We are in for something special tonight.
A tasty Artistic treat that is herstoric in nature.
An Offering that is evidence that Austin is a great city to live in.
I am honored to say that I know these Artists.
I am ecstatic to be a Witness.

The Artists on program tonight are breaking ground.  They are not only Working in new forms/intersecting disciplines/bursting aesthetic boarders.  These Artists have kicked past the old guard-thinking that keeps Vision marginalized and privileged.  They have created their own opportunities/have re-imagined Collective Spirit/have taken control of their own destiny and Work.  Through a re-shaping of space/tonight’s Artists are creating bold new ways for us all to consider making and showing Work.   In this they are being of Service for us all.

Tonight is a perfect example of how art can be a vehicle of social justice.  Of how community can be self-determining.  Of contemporary movement building through bridging.  Austin with it’s herstory of grassroots global organizing lead by Artists/women/people of color/queers….is the perfect place to nurture and hold what is being Given tonight.

You can give back by spreading the Word about your experience of tonight’s Work.  By joining the Artist’s mailing lists/volunteering/donating.  Through your continued Presence at events.  In each moment/with every decision you make that is informed by courage and Generosity as you move your own Work and Life forward. Together/We are the Answered Prayer.

Ache.
Rock On.
Strap yo wig.
We in flight tonight….
With Joy
Sharon Bridgforth
