Kintecoying Now is a series of free public arts events presented by FABnyc that recognizes the area of Astor Place originally known as Kintecoying (“Crossroads of Nations”) which served as a place for meeting, trade, diplomacy, and games by Munsee Lenape, Canarsie, Sapohannikan, Manhattan, and other Nations. Kintecoying Now activates the site with work by Indigenous/Native American artists, artisans, and culture bearers in order to honor and recognize its history.

On three evenings this fall, CultureHub will project video works by Indigenous and Native American artists onto the facade of FABnyc’s building. Join us outside on the East 4th Street Open Street, which will be closed to traffic, for free performances and arts programming.

Manhattan has always been a gathering and trading place for many Indigenous peoples, where Nations intersected from all four directions since time immemorial.  It was a place to gather and sometimes to seek refuge during times of conflict and struggle.  We pay respect to all of their ancestors past, present, to their future generations. We acknowledge that our work is situated on the island of Manhattan (Menohhannet – On the Island) traditional lands of the Munsee Lenape, the Canarsie, Unkechaug, Matinecock, Shinnecock, Reckgawanc and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. We respect that many Indigenous people continue to live and work on this island and acknowledge their ongoing contributions to this area.

Kintecoying Now is made possible through funding from the National Endowment for the Arts.

Special thanks to New York Theatre Workshop.
