FREE and Choose-What-You-Pay programs for all New Yorkers
In order to make our performances more accessible to more people and to center equity and inclusion in every aspect of our field, the vast majority of Lincoln Center Presents programs are FREE—with General Admission and priority Fast Track options—or Choose-What-You-Pay.

Celebrate the rich cultural traditions of New York City
This October, the Festival of Firsts returns—showcasing artists embarking on new journeys and celebrating significant moments in their careers: premiere performances in the U.S. and NYC, Lincoln Center debuts, album debuts, and fresh collaborations. On October 13 and 14, be enchanted by the interplay of words, sounds, and visuals, as artists push the boundaries of what is possible in the realm of performance poetry with our first-ever Poetry Festival. In November, the Latin Wave Festival presents their popular Latine Composers Showcase, FUTUROS, New Ideas in Composition, for three nights—all for free, tickets not required!
Re-discover the classics and be wowed by world premieres
Lincoln Center Presents prioritizes an expansive view of artistic excellence all season long. Choreographer Akram Khan rethinks the colonizer-centric perspective of The Jungle Book, retelling the story of the young girl Mowgli as a refugee child stranded by the cruel realities of climate change. Gospel, funk, soul, and Afrobeat come together in a joyful interpretation of the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic, The Sound of Music, this time viewed through a utopian, afrofuturistic lens. Aficionados of classical arts won't want to miss Les Arts Florissants' spectacular production of Henry Purcell's The Fairy Queen and Philip Glass's The Complete Piano Etudes—both running this November with a Choose-What-You-Pay ticketing model.
Come as you are to welcoming spaces and artistic events
Lincoln Center is committed to integrating access needs in the creative process and creating a space where everyone feels welcome. This fall, we invite kids, teens, and families to discover a love for the arts, including Gimme Please, with a weekend designed specifically for babies/toddlers and another for neurodivergent audiences. Our free legacy programs return for the fall and winter season: Lincoln Center Moments, designed for those with dementia and their caregivers; and Passport to the Arts, bringing live performances from across campus to children, teens, and adults with disabilities.We've sent an email to the address you provided.

lincolncenterathome.org Lincoln Center at Home false MM/DD/YYYY aho3e0k00zv7rk56sm4e178Co-presented by Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture
Curated by Loren Schoenberg, Senior Scholar at the National Jazz Museum in Harlem
Jazz thrived over generations in San Juan Hill, a historic Manhattan neighborhood home to many iconic musicians and performance venues in the first half of the twentieth century. Jazz musicians who lived and performed there fueled a vibrant creative community and evolved the genre through the stride piano, swing, and bebop eras. James Reese Europe, James P. Johnson, Benny Carter, Thelonious Monk, and countless others who lived and worked in the neighborhood broke new ground musically and shaped an art form that has captivated listeners worldwide.
Join us for a conversation with leading musicians and scholars, interspersed with live musical selections, about this compelling era in jazz history, whose influence has resonated over decades. This conversation will include a live musical performance, and complimentary wine will be served before and after the event.
PARTICIPANTS
Loren Schoenberg (Founding Director and Senior Scholar, National Jazz Museum in Harlem)
Fredara Hadley (Professor of Ethnomusicology, The Juilliard School)
Marc Cary (Jazz pianist and composer; Professor of Jazz Improvisation, The Juilliard School)
