Somad

SoMad is an independent art platform, studio, and gallery built on the premise of fostering community through art. The namesake comes from the location, just South of Madison Square Park, but also from our frustration with the lack of support for emerging artists. Our ethos is based on a collaborative process enabling artists, curators, and clients access to necessary resources to actualize their vision from production to presentation. We open our doors to artists, commercial rentals, curators and productions on a project-by-project basis. Our facilities offer a fully equipped photography and video production studio, printing resources for artists and a space to host gallery shows, film screenings, group critiques, live performances and events. SoMad’s mission is to empower artists through community, practice and collaboration.
