Kaatsbaan

Located in the tranquility of the open countryside, Kaatsbaan Cultural Park is an artist sanctuary. As an incubator for creativity and presenter for world-class artists in dance, theater, music, film, poetry, and art, Kaatsbaan provides artists with extraordinary studios, a theater, and housing that includes a resident Dancers’ Inn. Developed from the visionary thinking of its founders, Kaatsbaan supports an inclusive and diverse range of artists and their most ambitious projects. Three state-of-the-art dance studios, the Dancers’ Inn accommodating 32 guests, the Gatehouse offering kitchen facilities and additional accommodations, and a 160-seat black box theater with a performance floor the size of the Metropolitan Opera stage provide for a breathtaking and paradisiacal artistic country home for creative action and achievement. Since Kaatsbaan’s inception in 1990, year-round programming, performances, residencies, and seasonal events have offered unique discoveries with every visit. The organization’s dedication to historic preservation and environmental conservation has protected its vast open spaces, undeveloped hay fields, woodlands, and magnificent scenic views of the famed Hudson Valley and Catskill Mountains. For the first time in its history, Kaatsbaan is being made available for private events.
