Drawing Center, Art museum in SoHo, Manhattan, United States
The Drawing Center occupies a renovated building on Wooster Street, featuring multiple gallery spaces dedicated to historical and contemporary drawing exhibitions throughout the year.
Founded in 1977 by Martha Beck, former Museum of Modern Art curator, the center began in a Greene Street warehouse before moving to its current location.
The institution presents rotating exhibitions of established and emerging artists, combining historical drawing collections with contemporary artistic expressions on paper.
Visitors can access educational programs, artist talks, and drawing workshops, while the center maintains regular exhibition hours and provides online resources.
The Drawing Center expanded its exhibition space by fifty percent after a 2012 renovation, adding specialized areas for emerging artists and Latin American drawings.
