This exhibition is made possible thanks to The Art Students League’s partnership with 

In Summer 2020 and amidst the Pandemic, the two New York City nonprofits joined forces to host a series group exhibitions of League student artworks for in-person viewing. This collaboration provides public exhibition opportunities to artists and uplifts the community by reactivating vacant retail spaces throughout the city.
