The Curbs & Stoops Mission
Curbs and Stoops is a non profit organization
that is working towards increasing the accessibility of
art across a diverse range of socioeconomic and cultural
communities. Like our name suggests, we promote art at
the thresholds that define our cities, our curbs and our
stoops. This way, art is not a destination, like going to a
museum. Instead, it is a part of our journey. Although many
psychological experiments have lead to the conclusion that
art enriches lives - one does not need to have a doctorate
to understand that art can motivate, inspire, and enthuse.
We fulfill our mission by implementing public
art projects, community installations and street art. We
attempt to exploit the extents of interactive media in order
to provide fine art to those who cannot afford gallery
prices. We believe in the neccessity for the accessibility of
art. Art is no longer for bankers and heiresses.
