canal projects art space new york closing 1234758364

Canal Projects, a nonprofit art space in New York's Tribeca neighborhood, announced it will close its physical location on May 23, 2026, after just four years of operation. The organization will pivot to a grant-making model, allocating $3 million over three years to support arts projects, including Ayoung Kim's upcoming exhibition at MoMA PS1. The decision was driven by the high costs of maintaining an outdated building and a desire to redirect resources toward direct financial support for artists. The space, launched in 2022 by the YS Kim Foundation, hosted notable shows by artists such as Karimah Ashadu, Sin Wai Kin, Candice Lin, Geumhyung Jeong, and Seung-taek Lee. Artistic director and curator Summer Guthery departed at the end of March 2025. The final exhibition will feature Jakkai Siributr, opening January 30, 2026.
