What does it mean to belong? What do we carry with us, and what do we leave behind?
In our 26/27 season, Belonging, we explore how people navigate change and find acceptance in new worlds while longing for the community and traditions of home. Across great distances and generations, migration has formed our country as a living mosaic of cultures continually being remade, reimagined and passed on. We celebrate this vibrant and evolving tapestry through the lens of music, dance and theatre, revealing belonging not as a fixed place, but as something we must continually create together.
Belonging centers artists as both keeper and maker, preserving heritage while also forging new cultural convergences—an idea brought to life through two distinctive artist residencies. World-renowned banjoist Béla Fleck will trace the roots and innovations of Appalachian and bluegrass music, while Irish choreographer John Scott will collaborate with new citizens in Philadelphia to construct a dance-theatre piece shaped by their personal journeys of migration. Extending this exploration, our multiweek Arts of India Festival, presented in partnership with Sruti, showcases the vital impact of Indo-American arts and culture today.
