NOVA ARTS

Nova Arts is a nonprofit collaborative arts venue at 48 Emerald Street in downtown Keene, New Hampshire. The venue has a capacity of 300 people across two stages and shares the Nova Arts Block building with a cafe, coffee roastery, flower shop, vinyl shop, and open art studio.

Programming focuses on emerging artists and underrepresented voices with concerts spanning indie, experimental, folk, and genre-crossing acts. All shows are all-ages and standing room only with limited first-come seating. Nova Arts offers pay-what-you-can ticketing funded in part by a TD Charitable Foundation grant. Brewbakers Cafe and Keene on Vinyl operate in the same building.

Nova Arts Block is a DIY nonprofit whose mission is to present, incubate, and promote arts and culture in the Monadnock Region. The organization facilitates performances, arts education, and community collaborations. Businesses sharing the building include Terra Nova Organic Coffee, Feeding Tube Records, Billies + Tilli, and WakaDoodles Art Studio.
