Hi-ARTS envisions a world where the narratives and creative visions of Artists of the Global Majority are celebrated as central to the evolution of contemporary performance and cultural expression.

As a creative cultural center rooted in over 25 years of process-driven artistic innovation, we are committed to expanding the boundaries of theater, performance, and interdisciplinary art. Our programming nurtures a vibrant ecosystem of artists and administrators throughout their creative journeys. Hi-ARTS champions artistic works that have redefined mainstream—from neighborhood stoops to community stages, from backyards all the way to Broadway lights. Our legacy is not just what we’ve produced, it’s the cultivation of space to be in process.

In today’s turbulent funding landscape, we are even more grateful to Hi-ARTS’ steadfast supporters. Your commitment to our work has nurtured the resilience, brilliance, and vision of the Hi-ARTS community. By making a gift today, you will help secure a bright future for artists, administrators, and communities of the Global Majority. Thank you!
