Governor And Mayor Announce Programs To Revive New York’s Live Performance Industry

And, given the notorious personal relationship between the two men, it’s no surprise that their plans are entirely separate. Governor Cuomo’s scheme, called NY PopsUp, will consist of 300 free events over the next 100 days and 1,000 by Labor Day, many featuring very well-known artists, at “existing landscapes” throughout the state. Mayor de Blasio’s program, called Open Culture NYC, is a streamlined permitting program for institutions to present outdoor performances (socially distanced, of course) in city streets. – Gothamist
