About

How We Got Started

Dissatisfied with the economic and political state of the city of San Bernardino, SBGN was formed in 2013 to redefine the economic and political landscape of San Bernardino. In order to replace the negative stigmas surrounding the community, SBGN has focused its efforts on empowering young people to take ownership and responsibility of San Bernardino so that they may illuminate to other community members that the city is worth their time and care.

Our Mission

SBGN is a community-driven network that leverages the arts to educate the public on local socio-political issues, to create civic engagement opportunities that embrace San Bernardino’s diverse cultural demographics. By fostering a positive environment and encouraging residents to take active roles in enacting positive change; SBGN will heal, revitalize, and strengthen the community of San Bernardino.
