Performa

We, at Performa, believe that art and performance are essential to the cultural life of New York and to all inhabitants of the city.  Our biennial is always a full-on celebration of New York City, its resilient and adventurous artists and its many communities.

"Performa is dedicated to exploring the critical role of live performance in the history of twentieth century art and to encouraging new directions in performance for the twenty-first century."
- Biennial Foundation


Performa has on-going programming online and also has a Gala every Spring.
