Just Above Midtown

STUDENT OPPORTUNITY

Experience the exhibit of Just Above Midtown (JAM), a gallery open from 1974 to 1986 where Black artists gathered and created art without restrictions. Led by Linda Goode Bryant, JAM was a vital space that highlighted her belief to “connect us to our innate ability to use what we have to create what we need.”  A guided tour will be provided with an introduction by Thomas (T.) Jean Lax, Curator (Tisch, Performance Studies).

Attendance is free, but space is limited. Students will be given the option to meet at NYU Tisch, 721 Broadway, to travel to the museum via subway together. MetroCards will be provided.
