    A Legacy of Artistic Preservation

    Casea Arts Inc., a 501(c)(3) organization, was formed in 2017 by its Founder, Carmen Mathis. Casea Arts Inc. produces "The Carmen Mathis Show", an online/cable television show broadcast through Manhattan Neighborhood Network (MNN), a Public Access network in Manhattan, New York.

    The name "Casea" is a family generational name developed through family conversations, growth, and joyful moments.

    Casea Arts provides a platform for talented performing artists from New York City's (and surrounding environs) diverse entertainment pool to showcase and present them on T.V.

    Our Full Mission

    Casea Arts Inc. is a not-for-profit organization formed for the purpose of promoting and preserving the performing arts. We produce and broadcast on public access cable TV, online and other venues, performing artists of all types and of all age groups and ethnicities to enhance public awareness of the performing and fine arts to encourage cross-cultural exchanges of ideas and to promote greater awareness of the humanities.

    In addition to broadcasts, the corporation will encourage the production and promotion of plays, theatrical works, dance recitals and other artistic demonstrations in live and broadcast media. We will accomplish these objectives by: visiting institutions and venues that instruct students in the performing arts (such as schools, cultural centers and performing arts centers); taping rehearsals, programs and conducting interviews at their venues; producing shows featuring the performing artists at theatrical venues, open air fairs and festivals; and showcasing the artists on The Carmen Mathis Show (which airs every other Friday at 8:00 PM and the following Saturday at 7:00 PM at MNN.org and Manhattan cable stations, Spectrum 56, Verizon Fios 34 and RCN 84).
