XVI Annual International Chopin and Friends Festival in New York

October 20, 2014

In the light of the continued unrest in the world, as a means of bringing peace and hope into our lives, New York Dance and Arts Innovations dedicates its XVI Annual International Chopin and Friends Festival to the memory of Jan Karski - a hero and great humanitarian. October 15-November 14, 2014

The mission of New York Dance and Arts Innovations is to promote international artists, close cultural gaps as  well as to make quality art available to the general public regardless of their economic standing. Thus with this mission in mind the XVI Annual International Chopin and Friends Festival aims to bridge cultural gaps and spark acceptance and peace amongst people of all walks of life.

The festival will commence on October 25th, 2014 with a Gala Concert of DuoKlaviatarre at the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland. On behalf of the board of directors of New York Dance and Arts Innovations, I would like to thank Consul General of the Republic of Poland Ewa Junczyk – Ziomecka for her ongoing support and sponsorship of the festival as well as for taking on the duties of the Honorary Patron of the festival and welcoming us to the beautiful saloons of the Consulate.

Artistic endeavors such as this would not be possible without the generosity of our sponsors to whom we are extremely grateful. Thanks to their support and generosity this year’s Festival will include performances by pianist Nina Kuzma-Sapiejewska, Duo Klaviatarre, Poet Henryk Jakubowski, visual artists Ismena Halkiewicz and Franciszek Kulon
just to mention a few. I hope that you will join us for the events of the XVI International Chopin and Friends festival and help us celebrate cultural unity, peace and hope. Together we can make change happen, peace starts with us.
