Every artist should experience living in New York City at some point in their lives-especially Greenwich Village. It's where artistic visionaries have honed their craft and reshaped art forms. You'll gain inspiration from the revolutionary New School alumni and faculty who have inhabited these streets before you-Jack Kerouac, Bill Evans, James Baldwin, Stella Adler, John Cage, and more.
With the College of Performing Arts's extensive network reaching throughout New York's artistic community, you'll find countless opportunities to perform with, and be mentored by premiere artists. On any given day, Drama student playwrights might be presenting readings of their works at the Cherry Lane Theatre, while Jazz students are sitting in as house band at a Zinc Bar jam session, and Mannes students are making music at a First Friday at the Frick. The city will become your performance hall, improvisation lab, and cultural playground.
As a Drama, Jazz, or Mannes student, simply walking outside of your dorm or classroom brings you face-to-face with some of the most important and innovative artists. Experience firsthand what it's like to live and work in one of the most vibrant art scenes in the world.
