Lumberyard’s history goes back to 1999 when, thanks to founder and benefactor Solange MacArthur, it began as American Dance Institute (ADI), a dance school based in Rockville, Maryland. In 2010, after looking closely at the challenges facing the American contemporary dance field, ADI changed course to focus on artist-centered programs that include residency and performance opportunities. This new

direction resulted in what is now Lumberyard’s stellar reputation for providing this much needed support, with the Incubator residency program, introduced in 2011, especially praised. Lumberyard also serves emerging artists through its Solange MacArthur Award and Future Artists Initiative. In summer 2016, Lumberyard responded to artists’ requests for residencies to culminate with a New York City performance season by launching Lumberyard/NYC, an initiative undertaken in collaboration with New York City theater spaces, which, to this day, not only supports artists but also serves audiences who, at affordable ticket prices, have the chance to see a wide range of contemporary dance.

THIS WEEKEND AT LUMBERYARD!
Art Like Love!
Friday, April 28-Saturday, April 29
Free admission
Art Like Love! is an 8-minute film by Pioneers Go East Collective. Inspired by radical avant-garde filmmaker Tom Rubnitz, the film borrows DIY and camp aesthetics to celebrate otherness. The project is a springboard to examine DIY video artists in the 80s and symbolized a refutation of commercial art at the time when Soho galleries were just beginning to commercialize. With the bold affirmation that “Art doesn’t have to be consumed”, Art Like Love! sets an optimistic tone, allowing us to reflect on the creative process, and artistic intervention.

Yes, it’s true. We are selling our property for all the reasons so well articulated in the New York Times article.

Lumberyard Center for Film & Performing Arts is a facility and an essential model built to support and protect the future of American artistic innovation. Five seasons of operation have established an affordable proof of concept for our industry.

Our space has been an integral part of the Hudson Valley since opening, proving that the arts can be an unparalleled catalyst for American small towns. We take great pride in what we have built and the immense economic growth and investment that our vision generated. We greatly look forward to passing the legacy on to future stewards of this incredible facility.

The American Dance Institute, which operates the center, said the pandemic and shifting priorities of donors had led it to rethink its mission.
