Exit12: Stories of War
Intrepid Museum, Pier 86, New York, NY
Join Exit12 for our flagship performance aboard the Intrepid Museum, where this iconic weapon of war is transformed into a theater overflowing with art, healing, and community. For one unforgettable evening, professional dancers and local veterans come together to create and perform a powerful, moving exploration of service, resilience, and human connection. Through dynamic choreography and personal storytelling, this performance turns a massive instrument of conflict into a space of reflection, creativity, and shared experience.
This special event is free and open to all, so just come along and witness the transformative power of art in a truly extraordinary setting.
