Live Artery 2026
The dynamic Live Artery festival is one of NYC’s most attended dance-specific platforms during the annual presenter conference season, featuring resident commissioned artists and curated guests. The festival will host events in Live Arts’ theater, studio, and lobby, as well as co-present productions offsite. As the annual start to the spring season, the platform encourages commissions, tours and the building of long-term artist/presenter relationships. Live Artery 2026 supports 28 lead artists!
We are proud to co-present with our partners Triskelion Arts, Danspace Project, The Chocolate Factory Theater, L’Alliance New York, Pick Up Performance Co, Sweat Variant Studio, and Under the Radar.
