Congratulations to the 2025 Marge Award Winner!

Helen Mariah Murdoch

Beginning in 2014, The Marge Award annually honors a Bart’s Bards member who truly embraces the mission of the organization. This is someone who has gone above and beyond to create a community of love and belonging, promoting Christian fellowship through the performing arts, and selflessly using their gifts to the fullest to help everyone around them bring our productions to the stage, for the inspiration and enjoyment of all. This is the highest honor bestowed upon a member of the Bards family.
