The Brick

💓 End of year giving alert 💓

It’s that time of year when institutions like ours ask for support for the work we do. We cannot do what we do without community, and we need your help to reach our $25,000 fundraising goal—we have $21,004 to go 🤑

It has been an intense year for The Brick: leadership has transitioned, we endured a small electrical fire that shut us down for a month, the funding landscape has massively shifted, and the NEA (famously) rescinded our grant for our ?!:New Works program.

But! We have persevered: our organization’s mission and trajectory were prominently featured in , highlighting ‘s incredible show, “Mikey Maus in Fantasmich.” “Jewish Plot,” a show we were proud to present in association with Lucas Katler Productions, was included in top ten shows of the year. ’s “Crossing the Water” continues its successful run at The Brick Theater thru Dec 21. Our Brick Aux space is raucous and overflowing.

The core of The Brick is our radical YES to artists. We say yes to risk, yes to difficulty, yes to folks with non-traditional practices. As we move into 2026, we have no plans to change that. Up next is , a thrilling month-long experimental theater festival lifting up NYC artists. ‘s “without mirrors,” starring the inimitable David Greenspan, will animate our space in Feb. We can’t wait to share with you what else we have planned for 2026.
