Any direction you go, in every nook and cranny, you encounter hot downtown artists -- as innovative in their art as they are resourceful with their environment. For us, site-specific means working with the space -- not changing it, but letting you experience it in a completely new way. Stairwells, school rooms, residences, offices, hallways, kitchens, courtyards -- even a coat closet and an out-of-order bathroom -- have all been used in the past.

A fifteen-minute piece might perform a dozen times; another could last the whole day. Performance times are staggered so you can catch a little dance here, a little music there. We've designed the event to be audience-interactive, both during and in between performances. You can stick around for post-performance discussions, open rehearsals and meet-the-artists receptions...then head off to another featured performance or move on to an installation or video site.
