This summer New Yorkers and visitors strolling through the Flatiron District are being asked to respond to the prompt “Art is…” by writing their thoughts and feelings — in words and images — about what art in chalk on a public art installation. The response has been overwhelming, with passersby filling the installation’s two boxes with chalk messages every Thursday evening.
LatchKey Gallery is proud to present ECHO BOX, a group exhibition of 12 emerging artists currently pursuing their MFA at the School of Visual Arts, New York.

ECHO BOX will be on view at LatchKey Gallery, 173 Henry Street NYC from Friday, February 10 – February 26, 2023. An opening reception will take place on February 10 from 6-8pm.
