House Fest is back for its third edition on Governors Island. This three-day festival celebrates the artistic, cultural, educational, and environmental organizations on the iconic island in New York Harbor.
More than two dozen cultural partners will come together on August 16-19 in and around the historic former military houses of Nolan Park and Colonels Row, featuring free dance shows, musical performances, outdoor installations, interactive workshops, open studios, panel discussions, and more. This year's festivities will include new programs presented by Governors Island Arts, including a Projection Mapping Party curated by Sally Twin, a workshop with NYC-based drumline Fogo Azul, performances from Miriam Elhajli, Zoh Amba, and Eliana Glass and Eli Fola, and an intergenerational social dance party with Dance is Life NYC.
