Please join the Whitney Museum of American Art and Village Preservation for a special community open house of the Whitney Museum’s Independent Study Program (ISP) at the Roy Lichtenstein Studio, featuring a viewing of the program’s curatorial exhibition Not Everything Is Given, on Wednesday, May 22, 5–7 pm.

The 2023–24 ISP Studio Exhibition, At Odds With will be available for a concurrent viewing at Westbeth Gallery located across the street 55 Bethune Street, on Wednesday, May 22, 5–7 pm.

In 2023 the Whitney Museum of American Art completed a full renovation of artist Roy Lichtenstein’s former home and studio at 741/745 Washington Street in Greenwich Village, now the permanent space for the ISP. Only several months ago the participants of the 2023–24 ISP program, which trains the next generation of leading artists, curators, and scholars, moved to this new space, continuing the building’s legacy as a site for cultural production in the West Village. Now we are delighted to invite you to come inside and to the Westbeth Gallery to view the program participants’ culminating exhibitions.

The ISP has a step-free entrance, is wheelchair accessible, and has a wheelchair-accessible bathroom. The Westbeth Gallery is located within a courtyard, which has two step-free accessible entrances and a wheelchair-accessible bathroom.
