Who We Are
Musical Bridges Around the World is a multicultural arts organization focused on education and creating one-of-a-kind performances by internationally renown artists for the benefit of the general public and underserved youth and elderly communities, while fostering San Antonio’s reputation as a cosmopolitan cultural center. ALL of our public performances are free! What makes our programming unique is the pairing of Grammy-Award winning artists with folk, classical and jazz musicians across genres. Works are often commissioned by MBAW for world premieres and artists frequently develop future collaborations after meeting in San Antonio, Texas.
The organization was founded in 1998 by Russian-born concert pianist Dr. Anya Grokhovski, along with a group of music lovers to promote cultural understanding through innovative programming. MBAW envisions San Antonio as a vibrant epicenter that embraces her rich heritage and increasingly diverse cultural make-up through performances of international repute for all residents and visitors, regardless of socioeconomic standing.
What We Do
Our mission is to celebrate our shared humanity by providing access to global arts for all. We do this by welcoming the best and brightest artistic talent from across the globe to engage audiences with dynamic, unparalleled excellence in the performing arts. Our programs range from free musical performances for the general public, underserved youth, and retirement communities, to an educational program incorporating arts into STEM curriculum, to an art gallery open to the public, to a quadrennial piano competition.
