ArtYard is an interdisciplinary contemporary art center perched along the Delaware River in downtown Frenchtown, New Jersey. The organization’s mission is to serve as an incubator for creative expression and a catalyst for collaborations that reveal the transformational power of art. This work unfolds through exhibitions, performances, residencies, and public programs that support the development of new work, invite dialogue across difference, and connect people through shared creative experiences. ArtYard believes that creative collaboration and meaningful connection are essential to sustaining a thriving community.

The ArtYard campus encompasses four galleries and a 162-seat theater at the ArtYard Center; visiting artist housing at Creekside and Bridge Street Residences; and production and commercial space at ArtYard Workshop. This integrated environment enables artists to develop their work from early experimentation to public presentation with technical support and time to create.
