Brava! for Women in the Arts

Brava! for Women in the Arts celebrates 35 years as a professional arts organization dedicated to cultivating the artistic expression of women, LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, youth, and other underrepresented voices. Brava owns and operates Brava Theater Center, producing and presenting traditional and contemporary music festivals, a variety of film festivals, contemporary and experimental theatrical productions, international comedy shows, lectures, and professional dance productions—making Brava one of the most eclectic and multifaceted arts venues in the Bay Area. 

Brava’s four core programs reflect our commitment to our communities: we annually produce 30+ performing arts productions; provide professional and creative development to our artists in residence; subsidized rental rates to enable communities to gain access to our professional venue; and train 120 community youth in theatrical production and performance.
