The first annual Make Music New York is coming next Thursday!

On the first day of summer, June 21st, public spaces in all five boroughs will become informal music stages for all New Yorkers, amateurs and professionals, to perform for friends, neighbors, and passers-by, turning the city into a festival of live music making.

Just imagine: professional opera singers, high school rock bands, church choirs, underground MCs, Tuvan throat singers, salsa bands, punk rockers, string quartets, and circuit-bending experimentalists will all be performing in streets, parks, plazas, and gardens throughout the city.

Dance New Amsterdam's Subsidized Administrative Space (SAS) program was created for dancers and choreographers who have been unable to find affordable administrative rental space in the current New York City real estate market. The SAS program provides up-and-coming choreographers, as well as established choreographers and companies, dedicated administrative office space at a subsidized rental rate of $250/month.

In addition, resident companies receive professional guidance based on an initial assessment of the company's unique challenges, goals and objectives.

The mission of NYC Performing Arts Spaces is to help resolve performing artists' needs for music, dance and theatre rehearsal and performance space in New York City.

Through "American Masterpieces," the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) will sponsor grants for chamber music performances in conjunction with residencies that will highlight repertoire by American composers and enable ensembles to engage with communities in a variety of settings.

The Arts Endowment plans to support a range of projects that reflect the breadth of chamber music, defined for the purposes of this initiative, as music for traditional ensembles such as string quartets and trios, as well as compositions for mixed ensembles, traditional and indigenous instruments, and jazz.

Projects may be initiated by eligible organizations of all sizes, genres, and aesthetics such as ensembles, presenters, festivals, and colleges and universities. The Arts Endowment is particularly interested in projects that have at least one performance and two residency activities.

The number of theatre rehearsal and performance spaces on nycTheatreSpaces.org is rising and rising!
