The MAP grant is significant for the dollars it provides, as well as for its imprimatur. We’re honored to stand behind these 37 thrilling new works which were selected through a rigorous process involving over 60 artists and arts professionals reviewing hundreds of applications. But the economic reality of bringing any performance project fully to life depends on many individuals and institutions coming together at a meaningful moment in the work’s development.
For the projects listed below, that moment is now. By contributing to one or more of them with a donation in any amount, you further a momentum recently activated. And with a gesture arguably more consequential than ticket buying, you join these artists in their vivid explorations of the human condition.
