Mission
Queens Rising is a month-long, multi-disciplinary arts celebration created to highlight the borough’s culture and creative diversity.
Queens Rising Mission
Launch a wide-reaching marketing campaign to promote Queens arts and culture.
Amplify venues, performance companies, cultural centers, institutions, and small businesses by promoting events around the borough.
Outreach to less visible and often overlooked institutions and organizations interested in reaching new audiences.
Celebrate Queens with opening and closing events produced by our local partners.
Unify neighborhoods by providing audiences with easy-to-find event and calendar listings featuring artistic cultural offerings, and other sites of interest within specific communities.
Connect artists, venues, and businesses to provide as many opportunities as possible for arts and culture to be seen in Queens.
Fundraise from both public and private sources, without pursuing or affecting any partners’ current or ongoing funding channels.
