The
new
jersey arts collective
(NJAC)
produces programs in the creative and performing arts that promote the
work of living New Jersey artists and educate the general population
about contemporary art. Beginning in 2001,
NJAC
has organized concerts of modern music by New Jersey composers,
performed primarily by New Jersey musicians, under the name,
Ionisation
new music ensemble. In 2002,
NJAC
began incorporating theatre into its programs, and in 2006 added events
that feature a visual art component. The organization continues to
build interdisciplinary bridges between different forms of art.
NJAC
seeks out and creates opportunities that feature collaboration between
the following disciplines: music, theatre, dance, creative writing and
visual art. Financial support for
NJAC
activities comes primarily from four sources: grants and private
foundations that help to fund programs in the arts; partnerships with
arts and educational institutions providing financial, administrative
and hosting support; program admission fees paid by individuals; and
donations made by individual and corporate sponsors.
