Fridge Care:
Fridge is commuted to providing little or no cost exhibit space at our Nonprofit Art Fair as it is our mission to create an art fair without borders- walls or barriers regardless pertaining to cost.
NU hotel:
In addition to hosting Fridge, NU Hotel Supports local Brooklyn artists in three ways. First is our curatorial partnership with Welancora Gallery. Together we co-curate the lobby as an exhibition space for local Brooklyn artists. We open a new show once a quarter and host an event for the artist. Next is our NU Perspectives Mural Program. This program also iterates quarterly, where we invite an artist to submit a proposal for a mural to be painted in one of our guest rooms. We have an ongoing open call for mural proposals. Lastly, a working project space called PBX Gallery hosts intermittent pop up shows, fundraisers, and events. This space is curated by Natalie Fisk, creative liaison for NU Hotel. Artists interested in the mural program or PBX Gallery space should send examples of work, CV, Bio, and Proposal to Natalie.Fisk@nuhotelbrooklyn.com.

Ginsburg's works are found in public & private collections around the world including: Herb & Dorothy Vogel Collection of the National Gallery of Art, Corrie ten Boom Museum (Netherlands), The New Britain Museum of American Art, The Cartin Collection, Cindy Sherman, Fred Dorfman, William Wegman, Agnes Gund, Paula Cooper, and the LeWitt Collection.
