BAX/Brooklyn Arts Exchange is a multi-faceted performing arts center, recognized citywide and nationally for its dedication to supporting the development of emerging artists and providing a home for groundbreaking dance and theatre. BAX's programs, such as its artist residencies, are constructed to offer all the support necessary to allow for the in-depth investigation of artistic voice and intent. For over 25 years in which BAX has developed and refined its work with performing artists, the organization has garnered a strong reputation among artists as a place where they can take risks, succeed or fail, and have their work produced in a nurturing environment that promotes learning and growth.

BAX welcomes students, families, faculty, and artists to BAX, an organization with a core commitment to social justice. In keeping with BAX's mission to "encourage artistic risk-taking and stimulate dialogue among diverse constituencies," we intentionally and purposefully support the voices of under-represented individuals and groups. BAX has a proud history of and a commitment to supporting cohorts that are reflective of all origins, ages, sexual orientations, genders, race, and nationalities. In our curation and residencies, we take into account our field's history of racism and discrimination and make active steps to undo the effects of that history. We believe that this commitment enriches the experience for all members and audiences.
