Outline
The Warehouse Gallery at Syracuse University, founded in 2006, is an international contemporary art center located in downtown Syracuse, New York (USA) and serving the local community. There are four exhibitions per year for each of the two spaces: the main space geared towards national and international artists and the Window Projects space viewable 24/7 on West Fayette Street.
Anja Chavez will talk about The Warehouse Gallery’s mission, programming, curatorial direction, and the close collaboration between faculty, students, community members, and visiting artists, as well as its impact on a younger generation of Syracuse public school children who come to observe the artists at work or interact with them during workshops.
