Art by Architects 2025 Exhibition Opening

Student with Valid ID: Free
Artist Featured in the Show: Free
Donation Only: $20

Art by Architects NYC was founded in 2018 to highlight the creative multimedia exploration of architects that is often hidden behind the daily efforts of creating the built environment as we know it. Join us this year for our 6th exhibition!

Art by Architects has shown work from over 100 architects, professors, and students of architecture, and interior designers from all over the NYC area. It has brought together individuals from cross-disciplinary areas within the field of architecture and provided a place to celebrate each other's creative processes outside of the office. 

Beyond the opportunity to share creations in community, the show has raised funds for various causes. This year income from the sale of select artworks and reception tickets will benefit the Center for Architecture's design education programming which nurtures an understanding and appreciation for architecture, inspiring the next generation of design leaders. The Center for Architecture's Annual Education Fund plays a pivotal role in making this vision a reality by supporting K-12 programs, subsidized fees to partner schools, and scholarships.

The works submitted to the fifth-annual Art by Architects showcase will be shown at the Center for Architecture during opening hours from Friday, February 28 at 4:00 pm to Monday, March 3 at 5:00 pm. The Friday evening celebratory reception welcomes guests and artists for a time of sharing and networking.
