Open Air is a summer series of live, outdoor, site-specific performances throughout New York City in public spaces, offering a unique show format that bridges dance and music communities through collaboration. This series exists as a music and dance discovery platform and provides opportunities for artists to connect and create, stepping out of their usual collaborator circles, expanding their audiences, and making new work that lives on for years to come. This series has been presented mostly free to the public and has been produced in neighborhoods such as Harlem, Bushwick, South Slope, and DUMBO.
