PS122's Renovation

At this moment Performance Space 122 finds itself in the middle of one of our most exciting periods of transition in the organization's history. Our East Village home of over 30 years is undergoing a much-needed renovation, supported primarily by the City of New York, to dramatically upgrade the 19th Century building that is also home to Mabou Mines, Painting Space 122, and the AIDS Service Center of New York.

More about PS122's Renovation

We have a flexible, air-conditioned ground floor blackbox theater located in our historic East Village building available to rent.
