Human Connection Arts was launched in 2017, born from the days when Andy Golub, its founder, painted freely in the streets of New York City.

Now, the nonprofit ~ true to its mission of forming unique connections between artist and model during body painting ~ focuses on the vulnerabilities between models and artists, creating significant impact on artist, models and the public, as they strive to build a world where all people are accepted, regardless of race, gender, size, shape, age and even political views.

Kicking-off 2022, Human Connection Arts will host a new project ~ Naked Theater Workshop on January 11th has been postponed to February 3, 2022.

Next up ~ The 2022 Village Halloween Parade. Stay tuned.

The Theme for 2020 was ‘Vision‘. Andy Golub created a series of his Human Canvas Paintings this Winter. Groups of models form their bodies together to become one huge painting. Paintings took place on weekends in December and January in a Bushwick, Brooklyn studio.

July 20th ~ NYC Bodypainting Day! For the sixth annual event, NYC Bodypainting Day will be held in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Want to take part in the Event? And follow on the Facebook Event Page.

September 11th ~ HCA Returns to Washington Square Park on 9/11. For the 2nd strait year, HCA will cover the grounds of Washington Square Park with chalk art as NYC celebrates its freedom of expression on this historic day. Once again, the theme of the drawings are “Creative Expression.” The idea is that on 9/11 (or any other day) exercising our freedom of expression is a form of patriotism. We must never give up our right to express ourselves (even if it is unpopular). And we should stop and appreciate the freedoms that we have. Note ~ there is a $20 fee for artists which includes the chalk and snacks. Follow on Facebook.
