What we believe in

Accessibility and equity
We believe the arts must be central to thriving societies. Championing inclusion and increasing the accessibility and reach of Lincoln Center’s work is one of our primary priorities. We are committed to supporting artists and voices whose work has not historically been centered at Lincoln Center. We integrate access needs in the creative process and strive for the work on our stages to reflect our differences and interconnectedness.

Partnership and collaboration
Collaborating with all of the arts organizations that call Lincoln Center home is at the heart of our work. We are humbled to partner hand-in-hand with organizations across campus and New York in the cultural and civic spaces to offer rich experiences that serve and reflect the vibrant people of New York City, and global audiences at-large.
Innovation both on stage and off
We support innovative new ideas and experimentation, and leaders to help ensure the arts are responsive to broad societal questions and issues with which we all must grapple. We strive to be a place where artists and creators can develop bold, new initiatives that stretch the boundaries of art-making and the role of culture in our communities.

Kenan Fellowship
Since 2006, the William R. Kenan, Jr. Fellowship at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts has provided emerging artists who are committed to arts education with practical knowledge and experience as they embark on their career in New York City and beyond. Through mentorship and hands-on projects, Kenan Fellows focus on their personal artistry, learn about Lincoln Center's approach to teaching and learning in the arts, and familiarize themselves with the professional arts world in NYC. The fellows are active members of the Lincoln Center team, engaging with the community of arts learners and enthusiasts that we serve.
