ISSUE Project Room celebrates the 20th Anniversary of its Artists-In-Residence (AIR) program throughout 2026 with performances by current residents and returning alumni. This anniversary season highlights AIRs whose work reflects the ongoing evolution of a much broader community of experimental artists who have helped shape ISSUE for over twenty years.

Thursday, November 19th at 8pm, 2026 Artist-In-Residence and luthier Webb Crawford presents that passed away, this also may. For their culminating residency commission at ISSUE’s 22 Boerum Pl. theater, Crawford and collaborator Emma Mistele will play the organistrum in trio with Sam Boston performing on his self-built electric duochord with wheel. 

Building the organistrum was made possible via the Community Giveback Membership at Makerspace NYC in Sunset Park. Thanks to Annette, Scott and Diamond for your advice, patience, guidance, kindness, and immense generosity. This instrument would not exist without your support.
