About Art Omi
Art Omi is a not-for-profit arts center in New York’s Hudson Valley that is home to the Sculpture & Architecture Park and Newmark Gallery, international residency programs, and thriving arts education programs. Art Omi forms community with creative expression as its common denominator for artists and the public alike to celebrate the transformative quality of art.
Art Omi: Exhibitions is a laboratory for artists and architects to challenge conventions, take risks, and shape urgent cultural conversations. We champion artists and architects at critical moments of their careers, offering a platform to test new ideas. Through exhibitions, events, and publications, we foster projects where playful irreverence meets critical inquiry. Our program is designed to build community and provoke dialogue, self-reflection, and experimentation. We serve as an open invitation to all.
Art Omi: Residencies offers five discipline-specific residency programs for international architects, artists, dancers, musicians, and translators and writers. Since our founding in 1992, we’ve hosted more than 2,400 residents from over 114 countries. We invite the public to engage with our talented residents at free events throughout the year.
Art Omi: Education engages people of all ages with contemporary art and ideas in a stimulating and dynamic environment through programs including camps and weekly workshops. Through creative exploration, experiential learning and making, collaboration, and critical thinking, our arts education programs—beloved by local families and children and praised by educators for their pedagogical innovation—instill understanding, appreciation, and lifelong curiosity in the arts.
Free to all, Art Omi is open year-round.
