This year’s River To River Festival marks the organization’s 50th anniversary. In honor of the milestone, the 2023 event series features many LMCC alumni working across disciplines, with a captivating array of dance, performance,  public art installations, historic tours, and live music that reflects the interdisciplinary ethos of LMCC.

The Arts Center Café powered by Great Performances will be open starting Saturday, May 27 every Friday through Sunday from 12-6pm, serving beer and wine as well as coffee, tea and soft drinks and a light fare of wraps and snacks such as cheese and charcuterie boards and crudité with beet hummus.

The Arts Center at Governors Island opens on Saturday May 6, 2023!

The 2023 exhibition season takes inspiration from LMCC’s long history as a supporter of the arts through the theme of the passage of time. Each exhibition offers different perspectives on the ways in which artists respond to ideas about time such as personal history, the legacies of activism, objects we collect, intergenerational relationships, and more.
