Shabach Enterprise: Our Brand, Our Movement, Our Mission
"Shabach" [pronounced shaw-bakh]:
To soothe, address with a loud voice, glorify and adore, to boast, to triumph, to pacify through words and calm anger.
DEI Policy
The Movement
Over the past decade, Shabach Enterprise has broken barriers and created opportunities through the production of over 400 African American short plays. By employing more than 700 local BIPOC artists, we’ve built a thriving, diverse creative ecosystem that celebrates the richness of our collective culture. We are a movement rooted in equity, driven by purpose, and united by our passion to transform communities through the arts.
Shabach Enterprise is a dynamic minority-led, 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to enriching the African American community through the power of theatrical arts. Established in 2007, our commitment to equity and community engagement has broken racial barriers and fostered a diverse artistic environment that reflects the vibrancy of our society. Through our flagship series of festivals, we continue to amplify Black voices and narratives, contributing significantly to the cultural tapestry of Houston and beyond.
