Who We Are

RAB Arts is a catalyst for cultural production, particularly in downtown New York. Headquartered in Tribeca, we are an interdisciplinary arts set dedicated to creating opportunities for our peers. Since 1999, we have participated in over 347 artistic programs, including major placemaking exhibitions that went on to define contemporary street culture.

Mission

We serve the public as the infrastructure for otherwise unviable, site-specific, and socially engaged artwork, filling the gap between institutional support of the arts and the stamina of the youth’s creativity. In addition to giving a platform for the next generation of New York’s great artists, we shine light on unorthodox, often historical yet forgotten spaces throughout the city. Through exhibitions and public programming, our mission is to advance public interest in the history and future of New York culture.
