tART is an artist group based in New York City comprised of emerging artists committed to making art. It was founded in 2004 by a group of New York City based female artists whose aims were to create a community for practicing artists, as well as to serve as a post-grad school forum to facilitate a contemporary art dialogue. The tART collective has grown over the years to more than two dozen members. The group's members consist of locally and internationally showing artists. tART strives to strengthen the presence of women artists in the public sphere.

The variety of media and visual art disciplines presented in the show include painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, video, performance, mixed media and installation. The work will be hung in a traditional floor-to-ceiling Salon style to emphasize the myriad approaches and directions that make up the collective's overall spirit. The artists involved have graduated from various MFA programs which include Hunter College, Yale University, Pratt Institute, Tyler School of Art, and Brooklyn College. The collective meets monthly for studio critiques and collaborative projects.
