Give today, support the future of drawing

In the end, the subject at the Drawing Center is always drawing itself: what it has been, what it can be.– Holland Cotter, The New York Times

The Drawing Center, a museum in Manhattan's SoHo district, explores the medium of drawing as primary, dynamic, and relevant to contemporary culture, the future of art, and creative thought. Its activities, which are both multidisciplinary and broadly historical, include exhibitions; Open Sessions, a curated artist program encouraging community and collaboration; the Drawing Papers publication series; and education and public programs. The Drawing Center was founded in 1977 by curator Martha Beck (1938-2014).
