New York Live Arts is the re-imagining of two extraordinary organizations, Dance Theater Workshop - a stalwart supporter of over 2,500 artists since 1965 - and the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company - an innovative force in the dance community since 1982.

New York Live Arts strives to create a robust framework in support of the nation's dance and movement-based artists through new approaches to producing, presenting and educating. In addition to our deep commitment to individual artists at all stages of their careers, we endeavor to create rich, meaningful experiences for our audiences by engaging them in ways that are intimate and thought-provoking. With our audience, we seek to become a place for dance that is vital to the fabric of social and cultural life in New York, America and beyond.

Formed in February 2011 by a merger of Dance Theater Workshop and the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, New York Live Arts is led by CEO Jean Davidson, Executive Artistic Director Bill T. Jones, and Artistic Director Carla Peterson.
