@AsMother - that’s wonderful that you’re interested in exploring the world of New Music! Lincoln Center wouldn’t be my first stop, however. How much further is it to Brooklyn? Roulette offers a great selection of music (a fabulous three day festival of new vocal music, called Resonant Bodies is next week, for instance.) http://roulette.org/calendar/ And National Sawdust has a great line-up of artists: https://nationalsawdust.org They also offer a guided newsletter called The Log https://nationalsawdust.org/thelog/. Later in the year there will be festivals such as The Ecstatic Music Festival http://ecstaticmusicfestival.com, Prototype Opera Festival http://prototypefestival.org, and the Mata Festival https://matafestival.org (they have year around programming too - I see there is a concert mid September.) There is a good weekly guide to the new music concerts at https://www.icareifyoulisten.com. And Van Magazine https://van-magazine.com/about_van/ has some interesting articles and interviews, as does https://nmbx.newmusicusa.org
