Core offering

New York Chinese Cultural Center (NYCCC) is a nonprofit arts organization that delivers Chinese dance, lion dance, music, kung fu, tai chi, calligraphy, ink brush painting, and paper cutting through three core offerings: arts-in-education programs for schools, cultural engagement performances and workshops for institutions and corporate clients, and a School of the Arts offering classes to community members of all ages. The center operates a resident company of professional artists who perform, teach, and develop new works.

Product overview

NYCCC operates as a single unified offering of cultural arts programs rather than a platform-plus-modules architecture. The core offering consists of educational programs (Assembly Performances, After-School Workshops/Residencies, School of the Arts), Cultural Engagement Services (tailored performances and workshops in dance, music, kung fu), and the annual HOME Project commissioning new artistic works. The Resident Company provides the professional artistic foundation. All programs share the mission of sharing Chinese culture through arts education and performance across the tri-state area and beyond.
