Contemporary artists grapple with many of the same complex issues that our modern communities do—from race and gender to war, aging, and identity. Through detailed observation, innovative processes, and creativity, artists provide us with new ways of understanding and looking at the world around us. The Whitney’s pre-eminent collection and exhibitions of American art can serve as a focal point for exploration, dialogue, and self-expression for our diverse communities.
The Whitney offers free programs for select community-based groups and organizations. Learn more about our programs and apply now.
