Adam Weinert is a choreographer, researcher, and gardener based in the Hudson Valley. In July 2025, he was appointed Executive Director of Hudson Hall at the historic Hudson Opera House. His interdisciplinary practice explores the intersections of performance, agriculture, and civic life.

Adam has produced two award-winning dance films that have screened internationally, and his performance work has toured across four continents, including appearances at the Museum of Modern Art, Tate Britain, and Tate Modern. He has danced with the Metropolitan Opera Ballet, the Mark Morris Dance Group, and Shen Wei Dance Arts.

A graduate of Vassar College, The Juilliard School, and New York University—where he earned his Master’s degree under the guidance of André Lepecki—Adam’s writing has appeared in The New York Times, PAJ: A Journal of Performance and Art, and The Juilliard Journal. He was named a “Dance Renegade” by Dance Magazine, and is the recipient of the Léo Bronstein Award from NYU and the Hector Zaraspe Prize for Outstanding Choreography from Juilliard.

In 2020, Adam was named a Bessie Honoree for his work reconstructing and interrogating the legacy of modern dance pioneer Ted Shawn. That same year, he launched Jacob’s Garden, a working farm, living archive, and participatory choreographic project on the campus of Jacob’s Pillow. His ongoing research explores the sensual and political entanglements of embodiment, nourishment, and place-based history.
