Mission Statement

National Sawdust’s mission is rooted in music discovery that is open, inclusive, and based in active mentorship of emerging artists, while building new audiences and communities of music devotees. National Sawdust engages artists in an ecosystem of incubation to dissemination, programming groundbreaking new music in our state-of-the-art Williamsburg venue, and developing and touring new, collaborative music-driven projects — the National Sawdust DNA produces and presents world-class artistic work, which embraces a wide stylistic approach to music.

About This Cause

National Sawdust was founded in 2010 by Kevin Dolan, an attorney and composer, who dreamed of a place where musicians could experiment freely. Paola Prestini, an award-winning composer, joined Kevin as Co-Founder. Since opening, nearly 1,200 performances reaching approximately 127,000 have taken place. As a women-led organization, National Sawdust's mission is to stimulate inclusive music discovery with a focus on mentoring artists, and to build new audiences of music lovers. National Sawdust’s programs lay a foundation for civic and artistic dialogue that take on the complex realities of gender disparities, racial inequities, climate change, and disabilities.
