MANY is strongly committed to producing public events that provide a venue for performance opportunities and experimentation in music and interdisciplinary arts in the New York City area. Events produced by MANY are comprised of varied programs which may include new music, video art, experimental film, dance, poetry, performance art, experimental theater and interdisciplinary work. Programs are intended to expose audiences to work they may be unfamiliar with or would not have ordinarily sought out. As well as presenting the work of local New York artists, we actively seek to expose New York audiences to the work of artists from other parts of the U.S., as well as those from other parts of the world. Our projects hope to encourage communication and collaboration between artists, enhance the creative energies of all those involved, and expand audience awareness and support for all the arts.

MANY seeks to attract audiences from all walks of life, and the creative energies of young and old, emerging, emerged, or long established artists. We feel that combining these energies will be a powerful statement that will underscore the timelessness of creativity, and the value of collaboration as a creative force that extends beyond age, status, fashion, ethnicity, or financial position. We realize, appreciate, and acknowledge past innovations, and seek to build upon them through the unique changing voices of contemporary creative individuals.
