New York – Global Capital of the Arts

New York is booming. New York is rising. New York is growing.

More and more skyscrapers are being built and more and more people want to live in the Big Apple. Real estate prices are rising and affordable housing for low income individuals is hard to find. New York is a city that boasts a high amount of creatives, musicians, and artists.The tales of starving artists are ones that everyone has heard of. So how do they survive in one of the world's most expensive cities? With the help of private donors, the city of New York created a new form of culture-factory called THE SHED. THE SHED combines the concepts of a production site and a festival house. it is a place for the crossover of all art forms, creating a place that has never existed before. THE SHED contains a constantly changing programme of exhibitions, performances, and concerts.
