Mission

The wassaic project is a contemporary arts organization that uses art and arts education to foster positive social change, build local pride, and nurture partnerships between artists and our community.

Programs

3 programs

Exhibitionsproduces, curates, and hosts year-round exhibitions of contemporary art. The organization's exhibitions are open weekends, by appointment, and are free of charge to the general public in a rural community underserved by the arts. The exhibitions generally present a survey of emerging artists integrated into the unique architecture of the main facility, the maxon mills, a restored and repurposed grain elevator. To date, the wassaic project has featured the work of over 3,000 artists in our 8,000+ square foot gallery space. The organization is entirely responsible for the overall management of its exhibitions, including the recruitment of artists, the preparation of grounds and facilities, business and risk management, promotion, and event coordination.
