The 2021 summer Festival will be the first to feature on-site and online programming.
On-site events will run June 30-Aug. 29, with online streaming through Sept. 23. The newly imagined Festival â with the safety of artists, staff and audiences at the forefront of all planning â will feature commissioned works and world premieres and engage hundreds of artists who have had incredibly limited performance opportunities for the past year because of the global coronavirus pandemic.

The 2021 Festival also is the first organized by an expanded curatorial team made up of Artistic and Executive Director Pamela Tatge and Associate Curators Melanie George and Ali Rosa-Salas.
