Producers
Rhythm of the Arts was founded in 2005 in NYC to provide a platform for culturally specific performing arts companies to reach greater audiences. We celebrate authentic storytelling, multi-disciplinary and cross-cultural collaborations, and live music.
We produce. We connect.
We provide consulting services for artists, cultural institutions, and performing arts centers.
Thank you to our Kickstarter supporters, without whom this show would not be possible...
