About Us
We believe access to the performing arts is a child’s right starting from birth—the right for even the youngest among us to wonder what if? and to challenge why not?
Our Mission
Under the leadership of President & CEO Russell Granet, New 42nd Street is a leading performing arts nonprofit whose mission is to make extraordinary performing arts a vital part of everyone’s life from the earliest years onward.
Through our signature projects, New Victory and New 42 Studios, we serve young people, artists and educators with invaluable arts engagement and resources in and beyond the performing arts.
We connect people to world-class performances, essential education programs and creative communities that push culture forward. Because the earlier the performing arts are part of our lives, the sooner we can achieve the extraordinary.
