Passport to the Arts

Designed for children, teens and adults with disabilities and their families, Passport to the Arts provides a welcoming, accessible, and cost-free introduction to the performing arts at Lincoln Center.

Families are invited to attend performances, interactive workshops, and virtual events with Lincoln Center, New York City Ballet, the Metropolitan Opera, the New York Philharmonic, Jazz at Lincoln Center, the Chamber Music Society, and more!
