With support from the California Arts Council, NEW VILLAGE ARTS INC (NVA) will partner with esteemed teaching artist Frankie Alicea to reinvigorate and spearhead NVA’s Teatro Pueblo Nuevo (TPN), an outreach program with the bilingual and multi-cultural community. Mr. Alicea will serve as the Artist in Residence for NVA’s 20th Anniversary Season, and bring his wealth of experience and knowledge to help ensure that the Latinx artistic voice is honored and celebrated in North San Diego County.
New Village Arts (NVA) is now celebrating its 23rd season of award-winning, professional theatre, thrilling and unique visual arts, and thriving education and outreach programs in the Dea Hurston New Village Arts Center.
NVA attracts over 25,000 patrons to Carlsbad Village to experience professional theatre in its intimate, 100 seat house and has been recognized as one of the finest theatres in San Diego County and a regional leader in equity, diversity and inclusion. NVA’s robust Education and Outreach program includes immersive theatre programs in local high schools, The Mainstage Players: a professional training program for teens and young adults with neurodiversity, Mindful Theatre: programs for the local senior community, and Teatro Pueblo Nuevo, an outreach program to our bi-lingual and multi-cultural community.
In 2023, NVA opened the Next Stage, a smaller stage that hosts comedy, opera, spoken word, salsa, and much more.
NVA has truly become the cultural hub of North County San Diego.
