Access Artistry at Lincoln Center

For the past several years, I’ve had the honor of curating and performing in Lincoln Center’s Summer for the City Festival.

 

A photo of an outdoor stage at Lincoln Center. Kevin Gotkin, known as Who Girl, is a white person wearing all neon green as they DJ. Next to them is a screen showing creative captions of the music. Text says ok we're in the mix with a new track. this time the mix is happening in the higher end, with the high hats. we have lots of highs with us rn. There is a Black disabled dancer named Jerron Herman, living his life mid-movement, wearing a shiny metallic tank and dark blue athletic pants. Both Kevin and Jerron are wearing KN95 masks.

This work has been covered by NPR and The New York Times.

Check back soon for more documentation and context for the movement we are building to center access artistry and disability in nightlife.

 

A photo from deep in a crowd of people wearing silent disco headphones at an outdoor party. They are looking up toward a stage in the distance. There is an enormous 10 foot tall disco ball hovering over the iconic fountains at Lincoln Center.
