The Whitney’s building may be new, but its surrounding neighborhood’s past is long and storied. From the many Greenwich Village artists who came through the Museum’s first home on 8th Street, to the varied artistic projects along the Hudson River Piers: the history of the Whitney brings together the creative communities that shaped it. Join a Whitney Museum Educator or Teaching Fellow to learn about the vibrant and varied cultural highlights within just a few blocks of the Whitney.
