Kaatsbaan Cultural Park presents the 2024 Annual Festival in Tivoli, NY, from September 13 to October 6, 2024. The festival showcases various artistic styles and genres, from visual art to contemporary dance, in indoor and outdoor settings. September 13–15 focuses on film, literary, and visual art with an author reading and conversation with Francine Prose, an art walk with curator Hilary Greene and artists, and a screening of MERCE / MISHA / MORE, a film celebrating decades of friendship, mutual admiration, and collaboration between Mikhail Baryshnikov and Merce Cunningham. September 19–21, the festival celebrates music outdoors with a free Community Sing hosted by Gaia Music Collective and a performance of History of Life—Act 1, an in-development production by ensemble Contemporaneous inspired by Homer’s Odyssey. The third weekend, September 28–29, highlights Kaatsbaan’s dual role as an incubator and presenter with performances of original productions created at Kaatsbaan: dance works by Limón Dance Company, Boca Tuya, and Music from the Sole. The festival’s final weekend, October 5–6, features the Kaatsbaan debut of multi-award-winning British choreographer and director Sir Wayne McGregor and his work Autobiography (v100 and v101) on our outdoor Mountain Stage.
