Chelsea Art Museum (CAM) presents contemporary thematic exhibitions complemented by public programs intended to foster critical thinking about today’s world. Through its exhibitions and programs, CAM offers unique opportunities to gain insight into cutting-edge visual, new media, and performing arts, all within a warm, inviting, setting. CAM is founded on the legacy of the abstract expressionist painter Jean Miotte, whose foundation is housed within the Museum. Through his painting, Miotte strove to build a bridge between cultures and transcend national boundaries to form a truly international artistic language. It is in this spirit that CAM presents its exhibitions and programming. CAM was founded in 2002 as a nonprofit charitable organization. The Museum is housed in a historic nineteenth century warehouse that has been beautifully restored to incorporate contemporary style while preserving its original architecture. The building features 24,000 square feet of exhibition space spanning three floors connected by an open glass staircase. Located in the heart of Chelsea’s gallery district and alongside the Hudson River Park, CAM is surrounded by a thriving neighborhood that includes: The Highline, Chelsea Market, a variety of theater, dance, and music venues, and the trendy meatpacking district with its restaurants and shops. CAM welcomes approximately 100,000 visitors each year from around the world.
