New Project Studio: The Silent World

July 5, 2016 - July 31, 2016

The Silent World: A CRAVE-funded initiative

2016-02-19Isabel Cureux developed The Silent World as a way to explore what happens to the creative human mind as we grow older. Inspired by Jacques Cousteau’s television series, The Silent World asks people to perform a simple task: Make something that’s never been seen before that you think lives in the deep ocean.

In the space, learn about CRAVE, a community micro-granting community dinner developed by the Torpedo Factory Art Center and the Convergence Arts Initiative.


About The New Project Studio

The New Project Studio offers a short-term space to test new program ideas, spotlight underrepresented voices, and enhance community engagement. Projects will rotate on a regular basis and are considered based on the following goals:

  • Support new creative collaborations with neighboring organizations and partners
  • Strengthen the connection between our resident artists and the greater creative community
  • Provide opportunities for new audiences to engage with our building and artists
  • Inspire the next generation of artists, innovators, arts supporters, and diverse voices
