The Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center (SRBCC) invites both local and visiting artists to collaborate and showcase their work at its 200-seat performance venue in Hermosa. All project proposals are welcome, with preference given to productions featuring artists from BIPOC backgrounds, aligned with SRBCC’s mission.
SRBCC is dedicated to establishing a lasting impact within BIPOC communities by continually fostering strategic partnerships. These partnerships aim to enhance programs that directly benefit artists of color, young creatives, their families, and communities. This commitment is demonstrated through ongoing residencies, subsidized performances, collaborative projects, free rehearsal spaces, and recording opportunities that spotlight original works by local and visiting artists within our broader community. To submit artist proposals, email us at [email protected].
