The Porch Show
Cinders Gallery, New York
The 30 artists in the show all have unique voices that together can be heard as a representation of a loose-knit community of likeminded do-it-yourselfers that exist a little below the radar and yet are part of a thriving, positive, and artistically diverse new generation.

Community is as important as ever in our current political climate and with looming luxury condos threatening our neighborhood's current makeup of longtime residents, families, artists, and small independent businesses, it is all the more necessary for us to come together. With this in mind, we present to you our second Porch Show.
The American front porch sets the stage for this exhibition, which aims to resurrect and embrace the porch as an outdoor living room where the public and private can merge, while ideas of community, Americana imagery, gentrification, and the role art plays in our daily lives are explored.
The 30 artists in the show all have unique voices that together can be heard as a representation of a loose-knit community of likeminded do-it-yourselfers that exist a little below the radar and yet are part of a thriving, positive, and artistically diverse new generation. Aesthetic commonalities abound, where a longing for nature, a fascination with animals, a playful sense of humor, and a decidedly critical look inward appear in different ways.
In addition, there are countless events planned to coincide with this show including live music on the porch, BBQs on the sidewalk and video art nights. Check our website for updates.With most of us confined to closet-sized apartments or holed up in an isolated loft building, the porch is often a missing element in our lives. So come out and join us!
