Support local artists by drifting into a dreamy Midsummer Night! Hosted by NextNOW Fest curator John Smith ’21, this showcase features campus and community artists across different genres, including various styles of music, poetry, comedy and visual art.

As you enjoy NextNOW SummerFest, we invite you to take a moment to reflect on and acknowledge the Indigenous roots of the land that you’re on. The land on which The Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center stands on is the ancestral land of the Piscataway tribe. We encourage you to use a resource like Native-land.ca to learn more. Read about land acknowledgements from the U.S. Department of Arts and Culture.
