“The first time I went to the ESTIA variety show, I got that very specific “New York” feeling. You know the one. That glittery wave of “this is why I live here.” The one that comes with the reminder of all those years just longing to be in The City, to go out on any given weekend and meet artists anywhere. To see people vibrantly chatting at the bar, then two minutes later be up on stage, crush a quick set, then back in the audience. Like it was as natural as spouting a coffee order.”
Our Past Events
ESTIA DAY FEST – A living art museum experience
ESTIA Day Fest brings together creatives of all mediums and calls them to explore their own understanding of home in a space of immersive collaboration. ESTIA draws inspiration from the Greek goddess of the home reflecting an energetic source of light, warmth and refuge and is based on a creative practice of examining how our bodies function as archives, synthesizing stories from our past and guiding us in the re-imagination and co-creation of our collective futures. It is initiated by the belief that our own bodies/archives deeply store memories, histories and traumas and through the analyzing, deconstructing and unfolding of our archives is how we move efficiently forward as a community and collective. Through our festival we are hoping to amplify various forms of storytelling exploring these concepts in literal and metaphorical ways through various mediums!
“ESTIA was an incredible, friendly experience. If it hadn’t been for this beautiful festival we wouldn’t have met our two directors/choreographers SarAika who became a part of our community and directed our show in the summer. Full of international, talented artists who made us feel at home.”

“ESTIA’s Day Fest did exactly what their name entails, they’ve taken matters into their own hands and have built a home for artists to share, be empowered, and create a new family”

“One of the reasons I am applying to this opportunity is because of the intentional environment ESTIA cultivates. I have several peers who have all had really positive experiences when presenting work/participating in ESTIA day fest, and knowing these experiences were driven by such thoughtful programming/general care makes me feel like this opportunity aligns with my morality as an artist + person. As I become older, I realize more and more how important it is for me to present work/create art in truly inclusive and intentional spaces, and it feels to me like ESTIA is doing this kind of work.”
