PROGRAMMING PARTNERS

Venue and Organizational Outreach

Are you a Queens Arts/Cultural Venue? Are you a local business interested in hosting arts and cultural events? Are you an organization that plans or produces events, shows, or other activities in Queens?

We are seeking partners to join Queens Rising 2024! Queens Rising is a multi-disciplinary arts celebration, scheduled for June 2024, designed to highlight our borough’s cultural and creative diversity by amplifying and promoting Queens arts and culture. As a community that has suffered racial and economic discrimination in the midst of a global health crisis, we come together to celebrate our resilience and future. Queens Rising serves as a platform to amplify Queens as a rich arts & culture hub and destination. We celebrate our community as one borough and all it offers to NYC and beyond!
