cWOW is pleased to provide its gallery space for rent, as available, depending upon the installation configurations of current exhibitions. A pioneer in the alternative space movement, City Without Walls (cWOW) was founded in 1975 to provide a venue for new art and artists and to encourage dialogue in contemporary arts practice. One of New Jersey’s oldest non-profit galleries, we aim to support artists in the creation and presentation of new work, provide greater context and debate for experimentation, and foster an appreciation for the vital and dynamic role that artists play in our communities.
