For the 2019/20 cycle, PBI set out to facilitate more professional development opportunities for Bridge Work artists. This included the first ever Bridge Work Panel (Oct 10, 2019) alongside the Bridge Work 05: Departure & Reflection exhibition. However due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Spring programming was cancelled - including 3 artist talks, class visits to UW-Oshkosh, and the multi-regional exhibition . PBI and Allen Priebe Gallery hope to reschedule their programming for Fall 2020.

In 2018, PBI partnered with Var Gallery to provide additional support for the Milwaukee Bridge Work artists. This new partnership came alongside more regional focused programming. Madison-based Arts + Literature Laboratory and PBI began a more robust collaboration. In addition, a collaboration with UW-Oshkosh's Allen Priebe Gallery was cultivated.

In 2016, the success of the first installment of Bridge Work triggered interest from institutions in two other states. These institutions in turn became collaborators for two cycles of the Bridge Work program: Chicken Tractor in Des Moines, Iowa & Darger HQ in Omaha, Nebraska. In addition to creating their own regional chapters of Bridge Work, we came together for a multi-state exhibition showcasing all 2016/17 Bridge Work artists.
