To allow student artists to exhibit their work by creating a multipurpose exposition space with a focus on education and community outreach and participation

ARTSEEN will be a center in Wynwood with studios for New World School of the Arts seniors and spaces for workshops, exhibitions and lectures. There, New World students will be able to create their work for their senior projects while interacting with other artists. ARTSEEN also will also house a gallery space for monthly exhibitions. Open to the public, ARTSEEN will foster a dialogue between New World and the community at large and provide a focal point for Wynwood and a destination for South Florida.
