THE CORNER

The Corner at Whitman-Walker connects cultures and communities through programming of exhibitions, events, educational initiatives and artistic research, in order to increase access to art and to other cultural knowledge production.

We activate the creative potential of each and every person and gather a public that will help shape a hopeful vision of the future.
