HISTORY
Oasis Arts was born out of necessity - the same necessity that birthed Oasis in 2014 - So much rich potential for art and entertainment bubbling up in the LGBTQ+ community that needed a stage...a home. For a decade, Oasis has been a stage and home for thousands of performers, as well as a gathering place for audiences to experience joy, community, and love.
Sustaining such a space isn’t easy. Ticket and drink sales alone aren’t enough to keep our doors open. While Oasis has managed to stay afloat with federal, state, and city grants, along with generous donations from patrons, it became clear that we needed a new way forward. That’s why Oasis Arts was established—to attract donors who believe in our mission and want to help keep this entertainment alive and thriving.
In a year, Oasis Arts supports over 1,500 performers & artists. Our programs include the Living Wage Theater Arts fund, Community Events fun, Trailblazer’s (LGBTQ seniors), Mural Arts & Film Incubator.
We, as a community, have the opportunity to shape the world we live in – please join us in choosing to live in a city full of art, creativity and joy.
If you are not able to attend, please consider making a tax deductible donation.
