Art Program
The Yard Art Program
With a quarterly rotation of art openings and exhibitions, the Art Program is a core differentiator of The Yard. The program helps to ensure fresh, inspiring spaces while supporting connections between members.
Each of our 11 locations has a curator in residence who works with the Head of the Program, to organize our exhibitions. Across our portfolio we have upwards of 30 exhibitions each year–to date we’ve shown over 700 artists in our spaces. The program not only brings accessible gallery space to the local creative community, but it surrounds our members with stunning, thought provoking art that changes on a regular basis, catalyzing conversation and connection between members and the community at large.
Each show is marked by an opening reception, where members are invited to stay after work, have wine, and mix and mingle with the curator, artists(s) and other members of the community, diversifying the ecosystem and making The Yard much more than a place to work.
The Art Program officially began back in 2016 with the former Head of Art Program, Michaeline Sander, and proudly lives on today with Jasmine Pierik taking over the program in 2023.
