From May to August, Lincoln Center will be holding “Summer for the City,' a full-scale comeback for the institution that is aimed at eliminating barriers — from artistic genres to ticket prices, featuring both free and pay-what-you-will events.

Habitues of the New York Philharmonic and the Metropolitan Opera turned to the Mostly Mozart Festival for a seasonal classical-music fix.
The notion of helping to heal and restore the city’s equilibrium is paramount to the new festival’s messaging. "With ‘Summer for the City,’ Lincoln Center aims to support New York and New Yorkers, and provide a place for healing and for exploration after years of being apart,” Lincoln Center president and C.E.O. Henry Timms told Gothamist via email. “We as New Yorkers need a civic center more than ever, a place where we feel comfortable stretching our muscles of togetherness.
Included in the “Rejoice” category are “Sing New York,” a large-scale singalong opening event with the Young People’s Chorus of New York City; participatory events set in “The Oasis,” a dance-floor installation on Josie Robertson Plaza; a number of Pride Month offerings; and celebrations of iconic New York artists like the Notorious B.I.G. and Larry Levan.
