The Visionary We foster the creation process by providing artist residency, rehearsal and performance space at the 200-year old former Baptist Church in Mount Vision, NY

Founded in 2008, Upstate Production Services, Inc., supports the movement to decentralize New York State’s cultural landscape. After many years of service in the Entertainment Industry, we strive to dedicate ourselves to the cultivation, production and management of high quality Arts and Events outside major urban areas. We believe that the magical landscape of the Central New York Region can provide tremendous inspiration for the creation and enjoyment of new work in the fine and performing arts. At UPSI, we foster the creation process by providing artist residency, rehearsal and performance space at the 200-year old decommissioned Baptist Church in Mount Vision that we purchased in 2004 and at our 32-acre property in Westford. We facilitate additional performances and events through our theater and event production services, fabricating in our fully-outfitted metal and woodworking shop.

Thank you to our beautiful audience, crew, producers, and tremendous artists in residence who last night, Saturday August 29 presented the final workshop presentation of A Man Made a Chair, an aerial track dance-theater work conceived and choreographed by Lisa Giobbi in collaboration with the artists.

Enjoy a tableau of moment by moment theatre as ever changing canvases, all yearning, all completely embodied by the artists, seen and unseen. It felt like watching a dream or being inside of one. There were a lot of tears and a lot of laughs later as artists mingled with audience and crew, and were treated to a fire dance. Please, all, tag yourselves!

A night to remember.

Last night, we Exhaled at The Visionary.
Community gathered in a safe space to ground, release, liberate, integrate, and collectively restore.

It was a beautiful evening filled with many explorations and discoveries. Thank you to our sound alchemists, vocalists, sound healing practitioners, thank you Origins Cafe for your dedication to curating healthy, delicious nourishment for our community.
Thank you to our volunteer ushers, our volunteer staff, we had the ace team last night, one for the books.

We are editing the full reel but for now here is a brief glimpse into what a special evening it was, this summer solstice eve.

And finally, thank you Pam and Jamie, (truly) Visionary owners.
