Our Mission and More!

OPEN SPACE ARTS, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, is  dedicated to combating homophobia and transphobia through the  transformative power of creativity and cultural expression. Our mission  is to foster inclusivity, promote understanding, and empower  marginalized communities by utilizing various artistic mediums to  challenge discriminatory beliefs and attitudes. 


OSA won some of the top  honors in the Joseph Jefferson Awards for work produced in 2024,  including Production of a Play – Short Run (COCK), Direction of a Play –  Short Run (Michael D. Graham - LIGHT SWITCH), Performer in a Principal  Role – Short Run  (Philip Andrew Monnett – LIGHT SWITCH), and Performer  in a Supporting Role – Short Run (Sonya Robinson – COCK) . 

 

OSA showcases powerful LGBTQ+ storytelling through five exciting components:

  • Full productions of bold and innovative plays.
  • Staged readings of classic and new plays.
  • Staged readings of winners from our QUEER EXPRESSION WRITING CONTEST FOR STAGE AND SCREEN.
  • In-person screenings of feature films at FACETS in Chicago.
  • A virtual selection of short and mid-length films, available for streaming anywhere.
