Global Arts Live , located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is a vibrant nonprofit arts presenter dedicated to celebrating the world’s music, dance, and performance traditions. Since its founding in 1990, the organization has been, and will continue to be, a cultural anchor in the Greater Boston area, currently presenting more than 60 performances annually in venues ranging from intimate 250-seat clubs to major theaters seating up to 3,500, primarily in Boston, Somerville, and Cambridge. Known for its adventurous spirit and deep commitment to cultural exchange, Global Arts Live connects local audiences with renowned and emerging artists from more than 70 countries. The organization’s programs engage audiences with performances that span traditions, genres, and geographies, and each season brings a rich mix of global artistry to audiences from the New England region. Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Connie Chin, who joined in 2021, and Founder & Director of Artistic Programs Maure Aronson, Global Arts Live is undertaking a strategic leap forward and unprecedented organizational growth by launching 585 Arts, a new performing arts center in Cambridge’s Kendall Square. The custom-built center features a 400-seat state-of-the-art proscenium theater designed for dance, music, and other genres; a 125-seat cabaret stage; a rehearsal studio; and a ground floor commons that will offer an urban living room to the public. The venue will receive its temporary certificate of occupancy in January 2026, its full certificate of occupancy in April 2026, and its grand opening on September 19, 2026. 585 Arts offers meaningful opportunities to deepen the organization’s commitment to community engagement, including collaborations with neighborhood organizations, cultural groups, and civic partners. Strategic priorities include strengthening local partnerships, expanding educational and audience development efforts, and building sustainable earned revenue models—all while staying true to its core mission of presenting transformative global performances. As it looks toward the future, Global Arts Live continues to champion global performances. With a proud legacy, clear curatorial vision, and deeply engaged local audience, the organization is a vital force in the cultural life of Greater Boston and New England—bridging continents, building community, and bringing the world to local stages. Global Arts Live is governed by a 13-member board of directors chaired by biotech entrepreneur Nagesh Mahanthappa. The Global Arts Live and 585 Arts combined leadership team will be comprised of the CEO, Founder and Director of Artistic Programs, 585 Arts General Manager, and directors of Advancement, Marketing, and Finance (whose departments provide services to both Global Arts Live and 585 Arts). Currently, a dedicated full-time staff of 13 is supplemented by part-time and temporary staff, as well as independent contractors who support construction, production, marketing, development, legal, HR, and special initiatives. Staff dedicated primarily to 585 Arts will add approximately 17 full-time positions. Together, this expanded team will ensure that Global Arts Live and 585 Arts remain high-impact organizations rooted in creativity, collaboration, and accessibility. Global Arts Live has an operating budget of $2.8 million for the fiscal year that began on July 1, 2025. Approximately 53% of this comes from earned revenue (ticket sales), 45% contributed revenue, and the remainder from interest and other income. Global Arts Live is conducting a $20 million campaign for 585 Arts’ launch, initial programming and operations, and sustainability, and has achieved $12 million of this goal. After opening, 585 Arts’ budget (separate from and additional to Global Arts Live’s budget but managed together with it) will be driven by approximately $1.75 million in earned revenue and $900,000 in contributed revenue. Community Home to more than 4.8 million people, the Greater Boston area is New England’s economic and cultural hub. The region is the ancestral home of the Massachusett, Pawtucket, Wampanoag, and Nipmuck peoples, among others. Today, Greater Boston is the 11 th largest metropolitan area in the United States with a vibrant post-secondary population of more than 200,000 students and an exciting blend of cultures. Cambridge, Massachusetts, is a culturally rich, socially dynamic city of about 118,000 residents located just across the Charles River from the City of Boston. Known globally as home to Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge is a hub of innovation, higher education, and civic engagement. Its economy is driven by education, research, biotechnology, healthcare, and a thriving startup culture centered in Kendall Square. The population of the City of Cambridge is diverse and globally connected—nearly 20% of residents identify as Asian, more than 10% as Black or African American, and approximately 9% as Hispanic or Latino. More than a third of households speak a language other than English at home. A relatively young median age and high educational attainment reflect Cambridge’s appeal to students, professionals, and families alike. Cambridge is also home to a robust and eclectic arts and culture ecosystem. Theater companies, visual arts institutions, artist-run spaces, and festivals are embedded in neighborhoods throughout the city. Public art, creative placemaking initiatives, and city-supported cultural efforts contribute to a lively and accessible creative environment. Cambridge's retail and transportation hubs—Kendall, Central, Harvard, and Porter Squares, as well as Union and Davis Squares in adjacent Somerville—offer a blend of independent businesses, dining, and cultural venues, all easily reached by public transit. With its combination of historic charm, progressive values, walkable neighborhoods, green spaces, and year-round cultural life, Cambridge offers a uniquely stimulating environment for creative professionals committed to community, access, and impact. The General Manager, 585 Arts, will oversee the business aspects of a new performing arts center, leading its launch and day-to-day operations. This includes managing earned revenue and expenses, developing its reputation in the community, and nurturing key relationships with partners. As a member of the leadership team for the combined Global Arts Live and 585 Arts organizations, this position will report directly to the CEO and work closely with the Global Arts Live programming, community engagement, development, marketing, and finance teams. This role will supervise a staff of approximately 13 in the production and audience services teams to ensure a welcoming and celebratory environment for all artists, audiences, renters, partners, and staff. The General Manager, 585 Arts, will also work with external partners such as artists, renters, landlord property management, service vendors, the internship organization Brighter Boston, and many other nonprofits and community organizations.
