About the collection

NIAD’s Windows Exhibitions are a pandemic-era innovation, born out of the necessity to see art, and for art to be seen, that continued unabated during lockdown.

Way back in July 2020 Amanda announced in The Latest, “Starting now, each month we will add new exhibitions to NIAD’s street-side windows, selected by local artists, curators and NIAD community members… Interested audiences can now drive by, take a stroll past our windows, or get in touch with us directly to arrange for sales or more information on art and artists.”

Many thanks to NIAD Gallery Director Julio Rodriguez, the deft facilitator and gracious host of the Windows shows and associated Thirsty Thursday events. 

This online omnibus collects singular works from each month in the first full year of the Windows Exhibitions—a cultural artifact in itself.
