Our Programs

Intersection for the Arts creates and facilitates performance, literature, visual and interdisciplinary art that transcends boundaries, cultivates collaboration and exchange, and inspires community transformation.

The Theatre Program creates innovative theatre, dance theatre, and interdisciplinary performance, working with artists and communities who are committed to the process of making new work that grapples with the important questions of our times.

The Gallery at Intersection develops and presents installations and exhibitions that reimagine the role a gallery plays in civic life. We work with artists and community partners who define, interpret and help to transform society through their collaborative work.

The Hybrid Project is a youth-driven interactive performance project that fuses beats, dance, poetry, live music, theatre and more in a series of forums, workshops, laboratories and premiere performances exploring the newest ways to use performance to communicate.

The Literary Program cultivates the expansive and evolving role of indpendent literature in our world and builds audiences for live literary experiences.

Jazz at Intersection celebrates the depth and breadth of the jazz tradition, presenting Bay Area composers and musicians in intimate performance events.

The Education and Engagement Program provides opportunities for people - regardless of their experience - to engage in an interactive exploration of the process of creating new art from conception to fruition. The unique curriculum includes master classes, artist talks, tours, films, lectures, workshops, special events, and opportunities to perform, present and interact with Intersection's ongoing array of multidisciplinary arts programming.

Intersection's Artist Resources/Incubator Programs support artists who are making important contributions in our community and include the Intersection Incubator/Fiscal Sponsorship program which provides its members with assistance in funding, developing, and realizing their creative lives.
