This coming Fall, Works & Process will provide a number of exciting diverse shows for patrons to enjoy. Taking place at the Guggenheim Museum, Manhattan West, and the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, there are plenty of opportunities for unique experiences across the city. The non-profit organization helps foster productions’ journeys from workshop to stage. W&P allows artists to explore their projects without having to worry about the costs and risks of insurance, housing, and studio space.
Furthermore, performance works commissioned by Works & Process for LaunchPAD, which, stands for “Process as Destination” will go on tour. Additionally, the LaunchPAD program allows artists to explore and execute their craft, which is fully funded and has fourteen partners across Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York. Subsequently, Artists have the opportunity to share their crafts and hard work all over the country as well as internationally.
Kicking off the season is Gather Round, an outdoor series taking place at Manhattan West Plaza event circle. The series is in partnership with Brookfield Properties Arts & Culture and is free for anyone to watch. Works & Process will host breakdancers as well, to celebrate street and club dance battles every Wednesday in September. The multiplicity of events that Word & Process has to offer in addition to the number of locations, establishes the importance of the performing arts and making it available to the public.
The schedule includes special W&P commissions, full-blown productions featuring skilled artists, in-depth discussions, and exclusive Guggenheim member experiences, among many other various showcases. Undeniably, the schedule wholeheartedly carries on the mission of celebrating and prioritizing every area of art and encouraging the messages performers can tell.
