"Upstate Arts Haven Continues to Push Boundaries at 20"

The Fisher Center at Bard, designed by Frank Gehry, has become a hub for cross-disciplinary and experimental work in the performing arts. Over the past 20 years, the center has produced commercially successful productions like Justin Peck's "Illinois" while maintaining its commitment to pushing artistic boundaries. The center is set to expand with a new studio building and has received a grant to support the work of artist Tania El Khoury. Despite the challenges faced by the performing arts industry, the Fisher Center continues to thrive as a haven for innovative and daring productions.
