Focus on New Haven Leadership: Visit to NXTHVN

Description

Join your classmates for a visit to NXTHVN, an arts incubator and professional development program in the Dixwell neighborhood of New Haven. There will be a tour of the facilities as well as a discussion on the history and work of the organization and its place in the New Haven community. 

NXTHVN was founded by Titus Kaphar, MFA ’06, Jason Price, and Jonathan Brand. Their core aim was two-fold: to build an alternative model of art mentorship and career advising through a specially designed curriculum, and to simultaneously set into motion significant opportunities for emerging local entrepreneurs. In the spirit of adaptive reuse, NXTHVN is located in two former manufacturing plants. The space was designed by Deborah Berke, Dean of the Yale School of Architecture.
