A place worth knowing

Smaller spaces can reward a slower visit. The Drawing Center offers an art anchor for an afternoon in SoHo without an admission charge. Give the marks, materials and ideas in front of you time to become more than a first impression.

Regular public hours are Wednesday to Sunday, noon to 18:00. On 25 and 26 September 2026, the Pope.L exhibition has extended hours of 11:00–19:00. Check the programme around exhibition changeovers. The cover is a historical view of the Wooster Street building.
