  Venue Description:

  Park Avenue Armory is a newly-launched, not-for-profit arts organization whose mission is to revitalize this important landmark as a unique alternative arts space. With its vast drill hall and its array of 16 exuberant period rooms, the Armory offers an opportunity for the development and presentation of non-traditional programming in the performing and visual arts that resist the formality of single purpose halls and white box galleries. Joining a host of unconventional art spaces around the world (many in converted industrial, transport or military buildings), the Armory fills a crucial niche in the cultural landscape of New York, catalyzing and attracting works of art that cannot be realized at existing venues elsewhere.
