Armory Art Together
Fall ‘21
Armory Art Together brought together nearly sixty Youth Corps for another round of artmaking inspired by Armory artists! As the Armory’s art commissioning program for Youth Corps students, the program this semester was inspired by the department’s Art Journals and saw art packs sent around the city (and country!) to Youth Corps of all ages. Teaching Artists hosted remote Open Studios, bringing students together in community online to deepen understanding of the work of featured artists.
Park Avenue Armory's arts education programs are supported by generous grants from the Leonard and Judy Lauder Fund, The Thompson Family Foundation, The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation, Citi Foundation, the Zelnick/Belzberg Charitable Trust, the Hearst Foundations, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation, Emme and Jonathan Deland, the Emily Davie and Joseph S. Kornfeld Foundation, Lester and Enid Morse, Sanford L. Smith, Jane and Robert Toll, the Laurie M. Tisch Illumination Fund, Con Edison, Adam R. Flatto, Ken Kuchin and Tyler Morgan, Sylvia and Leonard Marx, Jr., Stacy Schiff and Marc de La Bruyère, the Howard & Sarah D. Solomon Foundation, the WME Foundation, Krystyna Doerfler, Janet Halvorson, the Ida and William Rosenthal Foundation, the Milton and Sally Avery Arts Foundation, and the Michael Tuch Foundation. Additional support has been provided by members of the Armory's Education Committee and generous donors to the Armory's Gala.
