IT’S TIME TO

NEW HARLEM RENAISSANCE

New Harlem Renaissance intends to support its community's namesake by servicing it's lower socio-economic residents of all ages, affording them with exposure, education and access to arts and culture at little to no cost. New York City is the epicenter of the arts. Many of our Harlem legends like Baldwin, Billie, Duke, Lena, Langston never graced art spaces such as Broadway, Carnige Hall, Lincoln Center, MOMA. In efforts to learn from our the past and spring forward, N.H.R. is committed to assisting their inhabitants with showcasing their unique artistic expression despite a lack of financial means.

Omar Thompson
