Creativity • Community • Collaboration
The Steel Bridge Creative Foundation (SBC) continues to bring people together through music, art, and community events. Some of our accomplishments include preserving Sturgeon Bay’s historic Steel Bridge, supporting the Granary restoration, creating a space for artists to create and record 100s of songs at our annual events (Love On Holiday, Steel Bridge Songfest / Day, and Dark Songs / Tamboween). As a nonprofit organization, our mission is to foster creativity, collaboration, education, and outreach throughout our community. [steelbridg…dation.org]
