Art House Productions Marks 25th Anniversary With Year Of Performing And Visual Arts Programming

Jersey City nonprofit announces festivals, new play development, and a fall production of RENT.

Art House Productions has announced its 25th anniversary season of multidisciplinary programming in Jersey City, featuring theatre, dance, music, visual arts, comedy, and film events throughout 2026.

“For 25 years, Art House Productions has been rooted in one simple belief: art brings people together,” said Executive Artistic Director Meredith Burns. “We were founded at a time when our community needed healing and connection. That spirit continues to guide us today, whether producing new plays, exhibiting visual art, hosting citywide festivals, or welcoming first-time visitors.”

Founded by Christine Goodman in September 2001 following the September 11 attacks, the organization was created to bring the community together through artistic dialogue. Art House became a nonprofit in 2007 and in 2017 Burns was appointed its second executive director. In 2023, the organization established its long-term home at The Hendrix on Marin Boulevard in downtown Jersey City.
