Reforesters Laboratory

About Reforesters Laboratory

Reforesters Laboratory is a cultural venue in New York City, presenting experimental performance and interdisciplinary art with a focus on process-driven work. It functions as a small-scale lab setting for rehearsals, readings, and intimate public showings rather than a traditional proscenium house. The site is used by independent artists and rotating collectives, with programming that often foregrounds ecology, craft, and new media. Its name reads less like branding than a statement of method, and the room tends to keep attention on what is being made in real time.
