Welcome to El Barrio | ARTS:


El Barrio is filled with an abundance of diverse local galleries, museums, murals, and cultural centers. It boasts the largest Caribbean and South American museum in NYC, a museum geared only to all things related to New York City, and the future home to a new museum specifically focused on African Art. The endless local-community cultural centers and gardens reflect the neighborhood’s cultural diversity. Street art and murals depicting the past and present make for an eye-catching, never-ending walking tour.
