Dorsky Gallery Curatorial Programs (DGCP) is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting contemporary visual arts to a broad public audience. Our programs of independently-curated exhibitions, publications, curator’s and artist’s talks, panel discussions, and art donations seek to illuminate and deepen the public’s understanding and appreciation of contemporary art as well as to foster a dialogue about contemporary art. With each exhibition, we produce and distribute an illustrated brochure featuring an essay by the curator detailing the raison d’etre for the exhibition.
Admission to all our exhibitions and related events is free and open to the public.
