Symphony Space (www.symphonyspace.org) is a performing arts center on the Upper West Side of Manhattan offering programs in theatre, film, literature, music, dance and family.  Symphony Space fosters artistically and culturally diverse performing arts, literary, and film programs that bring artists and audiences together in an atmosphere of exploration and intimacy. Reaching audiences throughout New York City, the wider metropolitan area, and – through distribution of programs via media such as radio, recordings, podcasts and touring – the nation, we:

• Present and produce a calendar of innovative, multidisciplinary arts events;


• Provide a first-rate affordable facility for artists and producers;


• Nurture relationships with established and emerging artists and other cultural organizations who will use Symphony Space as a venue for adventurous artistic growth;


• Take a position of leadership in curriculum-based arts education for children and adults.

Symphony Space’s two-fold operating philosophy is to create and present its own artistic offering and, at the same time, to support artists’ own endeavors and enrich our calendar by providing a subsidized rental facility.
