Exhibitions

This year Artspace New Haven and Community Partners put together a program of exhibitions throughout the city of New Haven to spotlight our vibrant community’s work. The artists are on view alongside the curators and community leads who are doing the organizing work to spotlight these artists and workers. This year we delve into and exhibit the power of what it means to collaborate in the arts. Through these neighborhood platforms we celebrate the span of intentional work that encompasses the arts: art making, curating, organizing, designing, promoting among others. We are so thankful for the help of these wonderful collectives and community partners who see the real and vast work of arts workers in New Haven!
