The Watermill Center, as the name suggests, is located in Water Mill, New York, just a short distance from the center of Southampton. This unique “laboratory for the arts and humanities” offers the freedom, space, and time for the global community to “create and inspire.” Established by Robert Wilson, a theater director and avant-garde visionary, in 1992, the center lies on approximately ten acres of the Shinnecock tribe’s ancestral territory and hosts events and tours for visitors. The Watermill Center places a focus on collaboration and creativity, integrating performing arts with inspiration from visual arts, research from sciences, and resources from humanities.
