award criteria


Beginning in 2014, The Marge Award has honored a Bart’s Bards member who truly embraces the mission of the Bards. ​The recipient of the award should be 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 prepare to bring our productions to the stage, for the inspiration and enjoyment of all. ​This is the highest honor bestowed upon a member of the Bart’s Bards family.




SELECTION


Nominations are submitted by active Bards members and collected annually during tech week of the Summer musical ​production. After nominations are reviewed and a winner selected by the Board of Directors, the winner is announced ​at the Summer musical’s cast party. The winner’s name is also displayed on a plaque in the Krumpe Activity Center.
