92NY’s Goldman Center for Children and Family provides an exceptional array of programs designed to support children at every stage of their development.
“This terrific new percussive dance series” (The New York Times) returns. Across seven days, tap, percussive dance, music, poetry, and visual art converge in a festival that treats rhythm as a shared language, moving across cultures, traditions, and art forms.
Uptown Rhythm opens March 1 with a Social Dance Party in the Guggenheim Museum rotunda, hosted by Works & Process, then moves to 92NY for the world premiere of a new evening-length work by Harkness Artist in Residence Naomi Funaki on March 2 and 3.
And this isn’t a festival you simply watch. On March 4 and 5, Uptown Rhythm transforms 92NY into a living, breathing salon – part performance, part gathering, part art party, co-presented by Art Bath and co-curated by Caleb Teicher. Dancers respond to musicians, poets fold into rhythm, collaborations unfold in real time. You’re up close with the artists, moving from stage to studio and back again as the distance between audience and performer begins to dissolve.
The festival closes March 7 at the Guggenheim.
Feel the exchange as it happens. The lines blur, the energy builds, and suddenly you’re not just watching – you’re in it.
This festival is part of the Harkness Mainstage Series’ Home season, exploring how dance maps the shifting terrain of home, identity, and belonging, and the borders – visible and invisible – that shape us.
