In the March 2015 edition of CUNY Television’s Arts in the City program, Professor Ernabel Demillo discussed the blossoming arts scene in Jersey City. During her report, Professor Demillo visited Mana Contemporary, a vast 35-acre campus of art galleries and workspaces, with over 100 working artists and artist residency programs housed in a renovated tobacco factory. Professor Demillo then visited the burgeoning Jersey City Theater Center to talk with Olga Levina, the Center’s artistic director, to learn about its residencies and renovation of a nearby meeting hall soon to become a performing arts center.
