Highways promotes the development of contemporary socially involved artists and art forms. Its mission is implemented through three core programs: the performance space, workshop/lab program, and two galleries. Annually, Highways co-presents over 250 performances by solo dramatic artists, theatre ensembles, dance companies and spoken word artists, along with 12 contemporary visual art exhibitions with work that explores the boundaries between performing and visual art; commissions and premieres work by outstanding local performing artists; and organizes special events and festivals. In addition, Highways offers residency and educational programs through the Performance Lab.

The performance space is curated by Artistic Director Leo Garcia. Primarily local artist are invited to co-present. However, special projects and two NPN residencies represent Highways’ 50 weeks of programming.
