The core of Amant’s mission is to advance the presentation of contemporary art with an emphasis on innovative formats and ideas.

Free and open to all, our 31,000-square-foot, five-building campus includes a multipurpose screening and performance space, a café, bookshop, and restaurant.

A series of courtyards and thoroughfares weave through and between the buildings thereby integrating art spaces into the urban fabric of East Williamsburg.
