Our mission is to empower and inspire the next generation of Filipino American creatives, by providing a space for learning, collaboration, and artistic expression – challenging the cultural norm that pursuing a career in the creative industry is “impractical.” Our vision is to bridge cultures and communities through the art of collective creativity, bringing Filipino talent ranging from singers, dancers, filmmakers, and notable influencers to the forefront of appreciated careers. We aim to foster a deeper understanding of traditional Filipino culture (and the limitations that stem from it) while redefining how one can turn their passion into profession. ROOTS AND ROUTES The theme for this year's summit is ROOTS AND ROUTES - focusing on exploring Filipino identity through creativity, culture, and community. Bridge The Gap’s Creative Summit also highlights the importance of finding your true identity from your passion within the culture around you. Community is a big pillar for Bridge The Gap, as we believe that one of the most beautiful parts of the Filipino American experience is the community it fosters. Be a part of the movement! As a new nonprofit organization led by the younger generation - we are putting in the work to create spaces that are not only building our community, but building our future. We feel incredibly fortunate to have a platform where we can celebrate Filipino American representation, amplify our voices, honor where we come from, and create opportunities for the generations coming after us.

Award-winning Ovation Theatre proudly presents "Hadestown" opening August 7th in San Marcos. This intriguing and beautiful folk opera delivers a deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience. Following two intertwining love stories — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of immortal King Hades and lady Persephone — "Hadestown" invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Inspired by traditions of classic American folk music and vintage New Orleans jazz, Anaïs Mitchell’s beguiling sung-through musical pits industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love. Content and Duration: Ovation Theatre's production of "Hadestown" is the Teen Edition adapted specifically for teen actors and family audiences. Viewers should note that this production features some mature, emotional themes (poverty, grief, and authoritarian control) as well as specific sensory effects, including strobe-like lighting, loud sound effects, and haze. The show has a run time of 2 hours and 30 minutes including one intermission and is generally recommended for audiences age 10 and up. Parking Information: Parking is free for all Ovation Theatre audiences with no permit required. We recommend parking in Lots 1 & 2, at the main entrance of Palomar College. For people with accessibility needs, there are handicap parking spaces close to the theatre as well as a roundabout where people can be dropped off just outside the lobby.
