Plan a Group Visit
If you are interested in partnering with the Henry on a program for your classroom or onsite, email contact-programs@henryart.org to inquire. Please note the Henry does not rent space or host private events. If you are looking for a venue on campus or in the Seattle area, please review this list of possibilities provided by the University of Washington.
The Henry is focused on building a multidisciplinary collection of contemporary art. Our contemporary collection includes installations, video, and sculpture as well as paintings and works on paper. As we look to grow the collection, we consider how new pieces will function within the greater collection and how they will harmoniously integrate.To seek a diversity of medium, as well as a diversity of artists, we look ahead to emerging trends in contemporary art and culture for works that identify with the multiplicity of voices and resonate with the practices of a particular time period.
The Henry’s exhibition program is planned two years or more in advance, and most exhibitions are the result of proposals generated by our in-house curatorial team or collaborations with other institutions. The majority of exhibitions and commissions arise from direct invitations to artists and curators with the express goal of creating a varied artistic program for our audiences. Therefore we can only rarely accommodate unsolicited projects. While we may review your work, doing so does not constitute a promise to exhibit your work. We cannot respond to each inquiry nor will we return unsolicited materials.
