HOW YOUR SUPPORT HELPS US
Culture Push is a 501c3 not for profit artist-founded organization. We rely on your generous support. All contributions are tax-deductible and go directly towards our programs and the people they reach. The Fellowship was started in 2012 and provides an opportunity for artists and other professionals to experiment with new forms of civic engagement and social practice, through events, workshops, performances, digital platforms, and beyond. In these past fifteen years we have supported over 100 socially engaged projects across New York City that enliven the city and the world with new ideas and practices. Help us keep this incubator going and support the birth of more bouncing baby experiments!

A tremendous THANK YOU to all the lovely people who came out to “15 Years of Pushin It!” on Sunday June 9, 2024.
It was a beautiful raucous delicious party, celebrating 15 years of Culture Push-ing. It was the first live party we’ve had in 5 years, and our community showed up and showed OUT and we are so grateful. It was the first time we’ve showcased our wonderful performing artists as part of our annual celebration, and it was a raging success.
We had excellent hosting by Sabina Sethi Unni, and fabulous performances by Fellows Zain Alam, Ray Jordan Achan, and Alicia Morales.
