West Harlem Art Fund, Public art organization in West Harlem, United States.

The West Harlem Art Fund coordinates exhibitions and installations across Northern Manhattan, transforming public spaces into outdoor galleries for local artists.

Founded in 1998, the organization initiated its first major installation 'Three Men Walking' in 2003, marking the beginning of numerous public art projects.

The organization incorporates the double crocodile symbol from Ghana, representing unity through diversity in their mission to support artistic expression.

The fund maintains year-round programs including fiber art shows, artist residencies, workshops, and experimental jazz concerts on Governors Island.

Through the Take Me to the River project, the organization secured funding for waterfront improvements along the Hudson River from 2005 to 2008.
