Organizations in Residence

Each year from May – Octo­ber, more than two dozen arts and cul­tur­al orga­ni­za­tions use space inside the his­toric hous­es on Gov­er­nors Island through Gov­er­nors Island Arts’ Orga­ni­za­tions in Res­i­dence pro­gram, offer­ing free exhi­bi­tions and pub­lic pro­grams and host­ing artist res­i­den­cies. Over the next decade, New York City and the Trust for Gov­er­nors Island plan to expand this sea­son­al pro­gram into year-round per­ma­nent homes for cul­tur­al orga­ni­za­tions in these spaces.
