Happy 10th Anniversary to us! The Bridge Initiative launched with a seed funding grant from Arizona Commission on the Arts in January 2015 and we officially became a nonprofit in October 2026 so we are calling our 2025-26 season our 10th anniversary. Woot!  Bridge is proud to be one of the few small local companies who choose to pay stipends to all of the artists who work with us from production managers to onstage talent. We have now settled into an annual season that includes the following approximate costs:      - 1 full production (or 2 in rep) at Tempe Center for the Arts - $22,500      - 1 Musical reading at ASU Kerr - $5,100     - 4 musical cabarets & 2 play readings at ASU Kerr - $8,500     - Marketing and admin costs every year (accountant, insurance, software mailings, etc.) - $5,600      - NEW in 2025: 1 full production of a musical at ASU Kerr - $30,000 Ticket sales do not come close to covering our expenses, and the grants we receive don't fully get us the rest of the way. We absolutely rely on the generosity of our community. So... any money you donate will contribute to the sustainability of the work we do in service to the artists and audience in this community - and we are beyond grateful. For a small company like us, every dollar is so meaningful! **NOTE: Your donation is fully tax deductible - we are a 501(c)3 nonprofit. We have chosen Zeffy to process payments because, unlike other platforms, 100% of your gift here comes to us and there are no fees. BUT if you would like to leave them a tip for being so awesome, that is absolutely encouraged! No amount is too small. <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1737242296/qawkxjbif1kj8wwooqce.jpg" style="width:600px;display:block;vertical-align:top;margin:5px auto;text-align:center;position:relative;max-width:100%;cursor:pointer;padding:0px 1px;user-select:none;box-sizing:inherit" />
