DID YOU KNOW…
When Gibney moved in to 280 Broadway in 2014, Studio A was unused space. During the renovation, our architects developed a plan to rotate the staircase in order to make room for this brand new studio, with the angled wall as a nod to the Flatiron Building near our original home at 890 Broadway. The space’s windows allow passersby glimpses of the movement happening inside, bringing dance to street level. Studio A is also home to Gibney’s Sorry I Missed Your Show series, along with a range of other screenings, discussions, and digital media workshops.
