New York City Center’s mission is
to make the finest in the performing arts accessible to
the broadest possible audience, while insuring that its
landmark facility remains an active and welcoming venue
to both audiences and artists throughout the year.
City Center accomplishes this mission by celebrating and
preserving the American musical theater heritage through
performances, score restorations and other archival
activities; presenting and producing new and innovative
programming resonant of City Center’s artistic
history, with a specific emphasis on dance; supporting
resident and visiting companies and artists; providing
educational opportunities to New York City students and
their teachers; and maintaining and enhancing the
physical facilities that comprise the performing arts
center.
