Testimonial from City Council Member Gale Brewer

"It is a pleasure to support the West Side Arts Coalition (WSAC) and to attend the exhibit openings at the Broadway Mall Community Center. With West Side real estate so expensive,  space for studios and galleries is increasingly scarce. While I wish I could reverse that trend, because artists are part of the soul of our city and the history of the upper West Side, I am delighted that the WSAC remains so vibrant in promoting local talent.  
In your building on the Broadway Mall at West 96th Street you have created a space that is abuzz with activity. Congratulations on your many accomplishments, on showing great art, and on giving all of us who have a passion for the arts a place and a community where we are welcome."


-Gale A. Brewer, City Council, 6th District


Testimonial from Ed McCormack, Management Editor of Gallery & Studio Magazine

"To me, the West Side Arts Coalition is one of the city’s important cultural resources. It gives deserving artists a grass roots forum for exhibiting their work and developing their aesthetics in public in a manner mercifully free of the contingencies of an often market-driven commercial gallery scene. There is an art for art’s sake purity that makes it refreshingly vital."

-Ed McCormack, Management Editor of Gallery & Studio Magazine

Testimonial from Scott M. Stringer, Manhattan Borough President

Picture
"In 1979 a dedicated group of artists made history and WEST SIDE ARTS COALITION was born! Myself, a long time Upper West Side resident, listened to the appeal to share their artwork with the community. It has delighted me over the past years to provide exhibit space in my office for WSAC’S growing membership. Presently WSAC attracts artists from Manhattan, the outer boroughs and beyond. Their intimate Broadway Mall Gallery at 96th & Broadway welcomes people to a place where “Art Soothes the soul” from the active-rush of city life. Visitors are rewarded a rare opportunity to expand imagination and passion as the role of art shapes our daily lives. Thank you WSAC for your gift of art!"
-Scott M. Stringer, Manhattan Borough President
