Welcome to SILVER ART PROJECTS
-
Silver Art Projects is a non-profit organization that supports, incubates and accelerates overlooked artists by providing free, year-long studio space at 4 World Trade Center, community-driven patronage, and career-focused mentorship designed to enable artists to conduct sustainable business practices.
Founded in response to existing models of art patronage that perpetuate a culture of inequality in which artists not represented by large galleries enter a cycle of disadvantage by not receiving business support, Silver Art Projects helps artists build strong thriving practices while also contributing to the creative energy of Lower Manhattan.
Silver Art Projects was founded in 2018 by Cory Silverstein and Joshua Pulman with the generous support of Silverstein Properties.

ABOUT THE WORLD TRADE CENTER
The World Trade Center has come alive as a dynamic public space with timeless architecture. Four World Trade Center was designed by the Pritzker prize-winning Japanese architect Fumihiko Maki. The building is a model of technology, efficiency and sustainability and has received rave architectural reviews. It’s a fitting home for Silver Art Projects resident artists and their works in progress. Alongside the World Trade Center, Lower Manhattan has emerged as a model of what is most dynamic about New York City. We are excited to contribute to the cultural vitality of this area and its long-time creative spirit.
