Encouraging art where it's least expected.

Public programming at the Council stokes the cultural life of the city with art, ideas, and imagination. We aim to stimulate conversation around key concepts and topics of the moment through the organization, production, and commissioning of a wide-ranging array of art installations, performances, and lectures that draw audiences to little known or overlooked locations citywide.

Lower Manhattan's largest outdoor summer arts festival.

A free outdoor cultural space open to the public.

Governors Island’s newest cultural destination.

A nomadic lecture series that opens rarely visited spaces.
