Founded in 1977 by Martha Beck (1938–2014), The Drawing Center—an exhibition space in downtown Manhattan's SoHo neighborhood—explores the medium of drawing as primary, dynamic, and relevant to contemporary culture, the future of art, and creative thought. Its activities are both multidisciplinary and broadly historical, and include exhibitions, publications, and educational and public programs.
THEY DRAW, a creative playground for illustration, features the work of artists, illustrators, doodlers, and drawers from around the world. It was founded in 2010.
The founding principle of THEY DRAW is to showcase the work of illustrators worldwide. This mission holds true today and guides the future of this platform.
