"I was there, I felt the love, I bathe in the creative energy, and I will be back."
"Participating in The Bridge PHL made me feel like I had found my people and that my piece achieved more than I thought it could when I first wrote it."
"The Bridge Festival is open arms to many communities showing art can be a large embrace that heals and inspires."
"The energy of the festival was amazing.
It was beyond comforting to be in a safe/brave space."
"The Bridge PHL is an amazing platform for voices that may not have had the opportunity to share a body of work. It is a much needed festival."
"A very grounding, connective, powerful, thought-provoking space. I am thankful for everyone who made that space possible."

Antiracism Page
Our Antiracism page is filled with links to helpful educators to follow, podcasts, training, films, books, and organizations, all available now on our website. Please check it out. The Bridge PHL hosts informal monthly Zoom meet-ups for those in our community who hold white privilege and are working through Layla F. Saad's "Me and White Supremacy" , as our white collaborators are, as part of our ongoing antiracism educational journey.
Come join the discussion. Please send us an email for more information. |
