Next Level NYC evolves its cooperative approach to designer-led exhibition through an expanded roster and daily programming rooted in community.
Launched in 2018 as an ephemeral design gallery, Next Level challenges traditional profit-led trade show formats and conventional gallery curation, blurring the line between art and design. Instead, it operates as a benevolent ecosystem in which over 40 premier independent designers and artists collectively display their work, showcasing community’s role in creation and acknowledging their connection to each other and to the larger world.
