NYC Arts: The Complete Guide to Art and Culture

Founded in December 2001 as a nonprofit alternative space, Participant provides a venue in which artists, curators and writers can develop and present projects within a context that recognizes the social and cultural value of artistic experimentation. 

Participant introduces this work into public contexts through exhibitions, screenings, performances and educational programs. Participant places together, in one space, work from various mediums—encouraging the coexistence of visual and time-based art. The programming priorities reflect the premise that artists produce significant work through a deep relationship with an organization whose focus is its committed collaborations with them.
