About
Excitement is in the air! Prepare to be part of something extraordinary at Garage Arts Project's BRIDGES 2024. It's an event like no other, and we want you to be there!
Join us for the Bridges Festival to experience the intersection of art and embodiment through commissioned performances. Eight innovative artists have been selected to create new, multidisciplinary works exploring the theme of SOMA (Greek for Body). In association with PlayFrisco Cultural Affairs, we're proud to present another year of groundbreaking programming showcasing the best local talent.
Through diverse performances, including dance, theater, music, and visual arts, SOMA delves into the complexities of the human body as a vessel for expression, identity, and experience. Each performance brings a unique perspective to the theme, creating a rich landscape of creative inquiry and artistic innovation.
The evening also features:
-
Interactive exhibitions and installations that showcase local artists (Curated by Visual Arts Guild of Frisco)
-
A dynamic marketplace featuring artisanal goods (Curated by Plano International Festival)
-
Opportunities to meet and mingle with fellow art lovers and creatives
At Bridges Festival, we believe that art has the power to bridge gaps and bring people together. Whether you're a seasoned art enthusiast or just looking for a new adventure, we invite you to join us for an unforgettable experience.
