Welcome to Lincoln Center, home to 11 resident arts organizations. Presenting music, theater, dance, film, opera, and more, our stages bring a tapestry of artists—from across the globe—to New York City.
Opening up the West Side of Lincoln Center
The Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) Lincoln Center West Initiative opens up the Amsterdam Avenue side of Lincoln Center’s campus, creating a more welcoming edge on the west side. The new design incorporates extensive community feedback from an ongoing participatory process that began in 2023. Features include: welcoming entrance that dramatically opens up Amsterdam Avenue to neighbors approaching from the west; community park featuring a lawn, water feature, tree groves and garden for public enjoyment; and new, world-class amphitheater that will improve artist and audience experiences.

Artists carry us forward
Propel into the future with Mainstage Presentations
This season, Lincoln Center Presents offers Choose-What-You-Pay Mainstage Presentations across contemporary and classical music, dance, theater, family programming, and multidisciplinary artforms from artists across the globe. You're invited to experience the transformative power of the arts, alongside artists who propel us forward to future possibilities and limitless potentials.
Encounter the arts through a curated Series or Festival
Each Lincoln Center Presents series delves deeply into one art form, one body of work, one theme, or one historic moment in time, through performance. All season long, we are celebrating the artistic legacy of the prolific theatrical composer and Lincoln Center Visionary Artist Jeanine Tesori. This spring, American Songbook: Echoes of an Inheritance, curated by Artist-in-Residence Clint Ramos, brings musical theater performances, powerhouse concerts, and genre-crossing experiences.
