About Us
651 ARTS's mission is to deepen awareness of and appreciation for contemporary performing arts and culture of the African Diaspora, and to provide professional and creative opportunities for artists of African descent. Through developing and presenting culturally resonant dance, theater, music, and humanities programs in Brooklyn over the past three decades 651 ARTS has worked with over 800 artists and ensembles of the Diaspora—from Cuba to Trinidad, Senegal to South Africa, Brooklyn to Brazil and back—on more than 500 projects.
We seek to be a leading institution in the performing arts ecology that illuminates the evolving stories and varied cultural experiences of the African Diaspora, an institution whose impact and influence transforms individual lives, neighborhoods, and global communities.
