The Nouveau Classical Project (NCP) is a New York-based, all-women contemporary classical music ensemble that is "bringing a refreshing edge to the widely conservative genre" (VICE). It began by collaborating with fashion designers for its concerts and has expanded to creating multidisciplinary performances. Its mission is to engage new audiences and show that classical music is a living, breathing art form. 

Join us in honoring human rights attorney and social entrepreneur Flynn Coleman with the 2018 NCP Visionary Award. This award recognizes innovative leaders whose work has made a significant impact in their fields and will be presented by Vidya Satchit. The evening will feature a performance by NCP, fine food and drink, silent auction, and the presentation of the NCP Visionary Award. 

Purchase tickets to directly fund the truly extraordinary line-up of projects that we have in the works for the coming season and support the artists for whom we provide valuable opportunities!
