This season combines works from multiple disciplines and collaborations between several institutions and artists, bringing an exciting new collection to their temporary Westbeth Artists Housing stage.

Currently situated in the Chelsea neighborhood in Manhattan, this season includes collaborations with longtime partners Protect the Peace with PROTECT THE PEACE: we, INSURGENT, The Kitchen’s Longest-Running Series, Dance and Process, Code Switch: Distributing Blackness, Reprogramming Internet Art, The Kitchen’s first traveling exhibition, and more.
