Earlier this month, Governor Cuomo announced the launch of NY PopsUp - an unprecedented and expansive festival featuring hundreds of pop-up performances, many of which are free of charge and all open to the public — that will intersect with the daily lives of New Yorkers. This series of events which began on February 20, intended to revitalize the spirit and emotional well-being of New York citizens with the energy of live performance while jumpstarting New York's struggling live entertainment sector, is a private/public partnership overseen by producers Scott Rudinand Jane Rosenthal, in coordination with the New York State Council on the Arts and Empire State Development.
PHOTOS of this weekend's performances in Queens and the Bronx made possible by NY PopsUp are available on the Governor's Flickr page.
