Our work in New York City public space would not be possible without the NYC Parks’ Art in the Parks Program. We thank them and their staff for their ongoing support throughout our history of producing public art in NYC!

For over 50 years, NYC Parks’ Art in the Parks program has brought contemporary public artworks to the city’s parks, making New York City one of the world’s largest open-air galleries. The agency has consistently fostered the creation and installation of temporary public art in parks throughout the five boroughs. Since 1967, NYC Parks has collaborated with arts organizations and artists to produce over 2,000 public artworks by 1,300 notable and emerging artists in over 200 parks. For more information about the program visit www.nyc.gov/parks/art.

Partners

Community partnerships are integral to our mission of producing socially engaged public artworks. These collaborations not only amplify diverse voices and experiences but also foster meaningful connections between artists, activists, organizers, and local communities in NYC. Together, we harness the power of art to ignite dialogue, inspire action, and pave the way towards a more equitable and inclusive society.

Below we list just a few of our recent and historic partnerships. More details on partnerships can be found on individual project pages.
