Lincoln Center Benefit Concert featuring Cynthia Erivo 2026

What the charity supports

Lincoln Center’s benefit connects the pleasure of live performance with the work required to make the arts part of public life. The institution presents artists, creates programs for different audiences and supports new ideas in performance and cultural access. Explore the organization’s work.

Where support goes

Support helps sustain Lincoln Center’s presenting and public-facing work. Its wider calendar includes free and Choose-What-You-Pay performances, family programming and access initiatives. Those activities provide useful context for the benefit; the concert announcement does not establish a fixed allocation of each ticket to one individual program.

The people behind the work

Artists, programmers, educators, access teams and the institution’s board and executive leadership share in this work. The announced benefit performance by Cynthia Erivo is the evening’s artistic focal point. Lincoln Center’s official organizational pages introduce the people and priorities behind the broader institution. Meet the organization.
