Jump the Turnstile is an ARTS By The People Project. It is a collaboration of original works featuring choreographers and dancers from Montclair State University, prose and poetry from creative writing students from Morristown High School, and digital media and animation from students at Maryland Institute College of Art. The live mixed-media performance explores the power of expression across different art forms, highlighting the creative spirit and celebrating a diverse set of talents.

Jump the Turnstile gives opportunity to creative writers, dancers and animators to explore and realize their work outside of the classroom, to experiment, and to have fun. Similarly, it enables collaboration among student artists working in mediums outside of their own, granting them the opportunity to see how their work is interpreted by other artists.
