The Whitney Independent Study Program

The Whitney Independent Study Program is part of the Whitney Museum of American Art, allowing artists, scholars, and researchers to engage deeply with contemporary art. Participants work independently on projects while benefiting from the museum’s resources, including access to its collection, exhibitions, and professional staff. This program fosters dialogue between artists and the public, promoting innovative approaches to art-making and understanding. It is designed to cultivate new ideas and practices in the arts, supporting individuals in their creative and academic endeavors.
