We’re so grateful to have been nominated for these 3 categories in this year’s Chronogram Readers’ Choice awards:
Performance space
Live music venue
Arts organization
In our third year, after recently completing our 150th show, and with many more exciting events to come, we’d be honored if you’d consider us for any (…or all!) of these categories!
Voting ends on May 15 over at Chronogram.com
Thank you for your support so far!! 💛

At globalFEST, we recognize that touring is an expensive, yet necessary investment for artists in order to reach new audiences, explore new locations, and maintain a viable career.
That’s why we’re excited to open up applications for our globalFEST Touring Fund, which makes grants directly available to past globalFEST artists by offsetting budget restrictions, thanks to generous support from The Mellon Foundation.
Who can apply:
🎸 Artists who have appeared at globalFEST’s NYC flagship January festival/showcase (2004-2026)
🥁 Artists who have appeared at a NYC gF summer festival (including 2026)
🎻 Note: Non-US citizens must have valid O or P visas in order to apply
